Aneurysms Support Group
An aneurysm (or aneurism) is localized, blood-filled dilation (bulge) of a blood vessel caused by disease or weakening of the vessel wall. Aneurysms most commonly occur in arteries at the base of the brain and in the aorta - this is an aortic aneurysm. This bulge in a blood vessel can burst and lead to death at any time.
I just had an aneurysym that burst in my brain. I am only 39 and scared to death now. I was in the hospital for a month and just got out. Anyone else have this that can tell me what to expect after. I am now having pain in my right foot and headaches. I know they say the headaches are normal and will subside at some point but this pain in my leg just started and wasn't there in the hospital.

Been up for awhile not sure how to feel, one minute I feel ok, next I feel trapped, next minute I feel like the world is closing in on me, I feel like I have no happiness, no friends, I feel so lonely, I wish I can crawl under a rock and disappear...

Life's been difficult since i was hospitalized on july 2017. I'm separated and have 3 kids in school. I really don't know how i'm going to cope. My credit card bills are piling up and costly medicines to buy. I can't do part time work due to my illness. I don't know what to do. And my kids don't seem to understand what i'm going through.I want to stay positive as possible because stress made me...
I had a medically termed giant ruptured brain aneurysm last October which caused a bad brain hemorrhage and two strokes. I had emergency brain surgery to clip the aneurysm and was in intensive care for almost 3 weeks. The headaches will slowly get better. I still have issues with exhaustion and a lot of short term memory and concentration problems even almost 10 months later. I haven't been able to return to work. For several months after the rupture I was scared to death that I would have another rupture or that I would die for some other reason. It does get better but takes a long time. Everyone is different. This is just my experience. I hope it helps. Just found this group.
