Terrified of brain aneurysm

[Ashley1489]

I've had light headed feelings feeling faint blurry vision and some light sensitivity for 4 years... Do you think I have a aneurysm

My eyes are so bad at times I see double without my glasses. Have had eye sensitivity for years. I wear sunglasses even when its cloudy out lol. The lightheadnes I have could be from anxiety or working on a computer all day or our phones. Had a cat scan done two weeks ago of my brain and all came back fine. Dr check my eyes and fine. Made me touch my finger to his and to my nose again fine. Anxiety plays so much with our minds that it will make us feel symptomns of stuff we don't have. Every week I have a new symptomn will obsess over it. Even with doctors saying I'm ok I still think their lying or missing something. But to ease your mind and if its really bothersome just let your Dr know how your feeling. Feel better soon.

Mpa, I reckon your eye symptoms are the effect of over long exposure to a computer screen, see if you can turn down the brightness of the screen or wear lightly tinted glasses when using it. I get the same effect and thats what I do.

Thank def going to try it. Eye Dr mentioned computer glasses then she got caught up after xray of my eyes and was end of that. Been wearing glasses since I was 4 and now turning 40 my eyesight is horrendous.

[Jeff1943]

The odds are extremely unlikely, I've had all those symptoms in the past and they were anxiety but only your doctor can give you the reassurance you need.

Highly unlikely. Sounds like eye strain from computer and a good dose of anxiety symptoms thrown in for good measure .

I doubt it is sounds more like a drop in blood pressure which you want to get looked at ! You dont say if you are taking a lot of headaches if so it maybe worth asking for a mri scan i say this as ive had a aneurysm in the past it wasnt aware of it but after 4 weeks in hospital i was fine ! Having headaches is not always a sign for aneurysm but if only to put your mind at rest see your doctor and tell them how you are feeling and hopefully they will get to the bottom of the problem take vare and good luck david

Thank you for your response.... I'm glad you are okay... I don't get headaches alot very rare and if I do it's always behind my eyes because I need a new eye exam done and new glasses...

Honestly get yourself an MRI of the brain and cervical spine. Good luck.

[Ashley1489 in reply to Hardluck]

Why do u say it like that?

[Hardluck in reply to Ashley1489]

Firstly I wish everyone here Health and happiness. Hopefully by having the MRIs it will give you peace of mind. Hopefully it will give you closure. Take care.

I have been to the chiropractor and had my neck checked actually posted the X-ray on here ... And it look like my neck is tilted and the bones are close together like pinched nerves

Some people don’t understand that we have been to the doctors on many occasions. I have the same thing happening with me Ashley. I’ve even been to a neurologist Who did not believe further testing was necessary . Yes everyone is different we are not all in the same health however if you have been to your doctor and you know that your doctor has told you that he does not believe that this is due to an underlining issue then try to understand that and think positive even though we feel like we’re on a damn boat . As far as why that person addressed your comment the way he did I do not know . however people do need to be more cautious because some of us do suffer from health anxiety.

[Ashley1489]

Thank you so much for your reply

[JoMarie5]

I’ve been to the er feeling like this more times then I can count . They had me hooked up to the heart monitor and the BP machine and everything was ok . I have no idea why we feel this way it’s a nasty feeling. But I’ve had blood tests, echo test , eye doctor and I have been to the neurologist. They all say everything is fine . Oh and last year before I even had anxiety I had a CT scan of my head . Sometimes my vision looks jumpy or wiggles. But it’s been like that for almost a year now off and on . I’m here if you ever need to talk .

Thank you very much for the reassurance... I mean I'm sure if I had a brain issue I would've had more issues by now it's been four years... I just let my mind get the best of me sometimes
