A member asked:
I have 360 coils for my brain aneurysm 2005 ihave had daily hda since.i was told to live with it. why?

Depends: If the headaches are related to the coils (and this can be a major question) they cannot be safely removed, and so the remark "live with it". But that is not an entirely satisfactory response because there may be another cause, it may be related to correctable complications of the aneurysm and coils, and it does not address possible methods of control. You may need a second opinion.

You need answers: Yes, the phrase, "live with it, " is not very helpful. A more detailed understanding of what may be causing your headaches, what to expect, and strategies to manage these possibilities can help. Please refer to the information contained in the brain aneurysm center for women for guidance. www.chicagoaneurysm.com.
