Headache: A brain aneurysm causes symptom by pressing on the structures around it, or by leaking. Headache, neurologic changes are the most common. If you have any symptoms that you feel might qualify, see your primary physician immediately and let them check it out. Treatment can be done by endovascular techniques now, making it easier and safer.

Worst headache : Unfortunately, the most common symptom of aneurysms in the brain is when they rupture, which is often life threatening. Certain aneurysms can cause eye pain, for example, prior to rupture which can bring them to your attention sooner.

Hope symptoms occur: It is well known that most aneurysms announce presence with acute rupture and subarachnoid hemorrhage with rather high mortality rate. Early signs may include unilateral pupillary dilatation, possible double vision, maybe migraine type headaches, rarely a small sentinel bleed causing a stiff neck, possible transient ischemic stroke like symptoms. Major headache, nausea, vomiting stiff neck usual.
