Just recovering from weeks of sciatica OMG worst pain ever it put up my blood pressure and they found an aneurysm on CT scan any one out there experienced the same

Mine was found by accident after an MRI following spinal surgery in 2015 - had cranioplasty last year July 2017. Very fortunate as Consultant said mine was on main artery so prob wouldn’t have made it if burst.

Hi

I was diagnosed with double vision Feb 17 - then saw the ophalmalogist Feb 18 - had a cat scan Mar 18 and then they found an 18mm aneurysm - so total shock! Had coiling Aril 18. Recovering well - with some problems - the DWP has now deemed me fit for work again - life goes on - yes I struggle but am determined not to give up. Thank goodness for the surgeons (my heroes), and all the lovely nurses who looked after me.
