A member asked:
I want to know if i may have a brain anyuerism. i couldn't afford to get the mri i was supposed to, and now my symptoms are getting worse. help!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Which symptoms?: Why is there an idea that an aneurysm is even present? Were you told that bad headaches occurring sporadically were due to aneurysm, because that is not a real relationship. Many aneurysms are congenital berry, and unless quite large, do not rupture. Why should you pay a month's wages for an MRI unless your exam is abnormal and points to structural mass?
