Hi, that’s one of the questions I asked....am I going to die. Thing is no one knows when there time is up.

Hoping your brain Annie is low risk and they may just watch and wait. Listen to your consultant and believe your going to be ok. So scary I know mine is being watched and I still wondering will it won’t it rupture, but we cannot put all our energy into negativity. Stay strong. xxx

I think they are going for watch and wait not 💯 yet.. getting bad dizzy spells atm, clumzy and so forgetful xx

in reply to Annie_86

Bless you...when I first found out I was the same I don’t know if it’s the stress. I also had pain in my head for months and suffered panic attacks and convinced myself It had ruptured but specialist assured me that none of it was happening and the Annie would not give me any pain as it is so small. The mind plays silly tricks when we have so much worry. I hope you get seen soon and ask them a hundred questions if you have to. The first time I saw consultant it was just so overwhelming and I was not prepared and luckily they agreed to see me again there is so much to take in so many questions. Wishing you well pretty lady xx

Have you seen a neurosurgeon yet? Just wondering if they said it’s related to annie? My gp is the only person I’ve seen and he says it’s nothing to do with Annie! My left hand side of face has dropped as well in the last couple of months?

My first one coiled in 2009 .tgey found anotger small one thats so far remained that way .i get bad headaches. And see a headache nureo nurse who tried to reasure me.tnat tge headaches are not anurism related. I get bad anxeity panic attacks since first anurism .i dont live anymore i just survive

in reply to AnneSherlock112

The panic attacks are horrendous, I had to go for counselling and I’m also finding it hard to get some of my words out I stutter. Must be scary for you having one fixed and then finding another one. xx

I know im having councilling as well so far not helping me .but earky days

in reply to AnneSherlock112

Hoping it starts to help soon for you. I had for 3months it helped a little,don’t think what anyone says is going to make us feel a lot better. But life goes on and somehow we have to get on and be happy , I’m at a stage where the worrying is more of a problem Really hope it helps xx
