Aneurysms Support Group

Most of the time brain aneurysms don't cause any symptoms, some people get headaches, dizziness, but all depends on the size of the aneurysm and where it is. I had no idea i had an aneurysm untill the day it ruptured, I had a sudden SEVERE headache, nausea and stiff neck, weakness and wanted to pass out, but it was in the process of bleeding, hope this helps

I didn't have any symptoms, i was sent for a scan because my mam and brother both had haemorrhages this is when they found my aneurysm. I had mine clipped in January and i'm doing fine now.

I had no idea that I had a problem, and still dont remember, other than what my Wife and Son told me. I ha complained about a headache two days before ir ruptured and I oassed out at home about 11:30 and son called 911. got to hospital and they operated about 3 hours later. See my pictures. I am doing very good now OldBoyScout...Dale

Thanks for the replies everyone, it is such a help to get answers from people who have experience then from doctors who sometimes don't have an answer.

I was one that had symptoms and they caught mine before it ruptured, I had a very bad headache and dizziness like Ruthie stated, My doctor had me do MRI and that when they found anni.... Sugion said I had a bleed and that is why the headache, I was very lucky because most do not have symptoms...=)

I have had dizziness, "tilting", fatigue for more than a year. 8 months ago I was diagnosed with a 6mm aneurysm in the anterior communicating artery. All neuros that I have seen say that these are not symptoms. ????????? ddd55
