A member asked:
I had coiling done on 5/13/13 for brain aneurysm. what if any restrictions apply to me for the rest of my life?

Coiling: As long as the aneurysm was completely treated and you have recovered from the procedure (the access site in the leg has healed) then you should be able to return to normal activities. Except smoking. Smoking effects blood vessels and is a known modifiable risk factor for the development of brain aneurysms. You should contact the surgeon who performed the procedure for any other concerns.
