Suggest Treatment For Basil Tip Brain Aneurysm

I have a history of a basil tip brain aneurysm ( clip done in 2005 ) . I do have another but have not had significant issues until recently. Blood pressure is running 146/113 , 112/90 and will spike up to 190/102. Yes, I have headaches...who doesn't, my vision is affected....but more so there has been a shift in the skull bone from the 2005 surgery. I am not stupid nor am I over dramatic. I do not take narcotics but at some point I just pray for a day it doesn't hurt. So.... crazy or what?

Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. First of all you need to maintain under control your blood pressure ( < 130 mmHg). Your new aneurysm can be treated by coiling it with cerebral arteriography. So I suggest you to refer to a Neurosurgical Center and discuss possibility of treatment of the aneurysm. If you control your BP and treat correctly your aneurysm, you can have a quality long life. Hope this helps. Wishing you good health.
