Thin blood: You do not need to thin out your blood and you should stop aspirin. See your neurosurgeon and get the aneurysm treated. It is reasonably safe today in competent hands you need to take care of it.

No: People usually use the term "thin blood" to mean anticoagulate or make the blood less likely to clot. This would be the last thing you would want to do with a cerebral aneurysm. If it were to burst, you want it to clot asap and not keep bleeding. Is anyone talking about fixing it?
