I had two aneurysms corected in March of 2002 via craniotomy, they were on the right opthalmic artery. I don't know about most people, I recovere after a while, it did take time and I had vision problems and a stroke during the surgery, but I was able to return to work 5 weeks after the surgery with an eyepatch and a cane. In 2007 I started feeling "not well". I think I knew before I had the testing done, I have 3 new inoperable anerysms at the base of my brain on the Circle of Willis. My docs tell me I'm rare, I lost (atrophied) the artery on the right side of my head, but becasue of the new aneurysms I was unable to proceed with planned brain bypass surgery. I also know other people who never have complications once they have initial aneurym surgery, it just seems to be such an individual thing. From my own experience don't be satisfied, persist!! Get a second opinion, go to a well known specialist, do what you have to do, listen to your body and I wish you good luck and all the best. Most likely everything is fine. I was told for over a year there was nothing else wrong with me while my aneurysms were growing and my brain had partially atrophied. If you don't feel better soon go see the doctor or another and another!!

Close Anxiety
I have anxiety on a daily basis and it is has been a struggle for months now. I'd like to hear how other people are coping with this.
Treatments
- Xanax Somewhat Helpful
- This is somewhat helpful but I agree w/what some other people on this site have said, that once it starts to wear off you feel more anxiety. It does calm me when I first take it but don't like that it makes me feel drowsy and dizzy.
