A member asked:

What do you suggest if my mom has been diagnosed with a 9mm cerebral berry aneurysm.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Brain aneurysm: An aneurysm is a blister on a blood vessel. There is a risk of these bleeding leading possibly to a brain hemorrhage. If the aneurysm has not bled and only found as part of another study there are known statistics on the risk of bleed over the lifetime of the patient. A consultation with a neurosurgeon would be highly advisable.
