Hi, Jennifer, I am 33 years old and had a sudden rupture and clipping on 3/4/09 on my right side.

I did not experience loss of feeling, so I can't help with that, sorry.

I agree we are walking miracles and I often feel depressed especially when I think of my nearly 100% recovery. I am very thankful and grateful, but also perplexed at the same time. My husband says I should just embrace the wonderful things God has given me and move on in life...but it is so hard. Maybe in time the feelings will diminish.

Are you going back for follow up checks?

Yes I am going back for follow ups but my neurologist is an hour and half away, so my PCP has recommended that I go to someone lin my area for meds for the headahes Thanks for your response and advice. These headaches are horrible and I only have 2 pain pills left, so I'm hoping that I can get iin with him in the next few days because Tynenol does't work an that is all I can take because I 'm on Coumadin. Do you take anything for headaches? I just want to know what my options are. Thanks, Jennifer

Because of the nature of my rupture and the pain I felt, I hesitate to take pain meds at first when I get a headache. I usually try to wait it out...drinking lots of fluids and making sure my blood sugar is in check. I only take Tylenol, nothing more.

afta aneursym burst and clippin i wanted to put myself 2 sleep because of the depression i was in...happened 23th dec 2006...it took all of 6 mths to feel a shift and even now i get real tired and the brain just doesnt operate likeit used to.
when this appened i went into a coma and was flown to hospital...i left my body whilst in the plane......kids were told that was probably the end 4 for me as haemorrage was so bad....u r so right...we all r very lucky to b alive....u have so much more to contend with...dont be so hard on yourself....you will get there!!!!!
stay away from bad and gloomy stuff like movies and tv programes....watch happy things.
All the very best...loads of love and healing to you

Thanks for your thoughts and advice. See my new post tonight on my 3 month check up. Keep me posted on how you are doing with the headaches and loss of feeling, I am hopeful that you will find meds that work for you and give you the relief you deserve.

iam 27, my mum had a ruptured brain anyrusm 2 weeks ago an had clipping. She had a grade 5 rupture... and cannot move left side... and acts like a young child now. I am finding it very hard with the loss of my mum that i knew before, iam happy she is alive... but want to know how or if she will get better with rehab?

I'm taking coumadin and my GP has also placed me on a Fentanyl patch as well as the T3's for headaches and it seems to be working.

Worried!!! My grandma had an aneurysm (sah) about a month ago! She remembers some stuff but not everything. She talks about the most random things and doenst make any sense! Will this go away or will it be permanent? Someone please help cause i have been trying to look it up! I love her and trying to help in any way I can anyone have similar stories? Thanks
