I have posted here before, I went unconscious 1/15/2026 and lost feeling on the left side of my body. After a CT they found my 2 cm aneurysm. They coiled it, and a 3 weeks later it grew to 2.5 cm, and they coiled more and added a stent. 3 weeks after that it started to fill rapidly again, and they added a flow diverter.. THEN it happened again 3 weeks later. They put me in an ambulance and sent me to Cleveland clinic for further treatment of my unstable (uncooperative) giant aneurysm. They treated me with meds and sent me home to wait it out. On May of this year I finally got good news that my aneurysm went from 2.5 cm to 1.7cm. I spent June and July COMPLETELY hospital free since JANUARY! Until this week. This week I got news that my aneurysm is FILLING again. Even more than in April. I had an Angiogram on Monday to figure out next steps but it looks like they plan on clipping the "branch" that doesnt have the stents but is feeding the aneurysm. The other option is bypass. I am looking for any tips or tricks that you loved or needed during recovery after a craniotomy

I have a nail appointment on Friday for gel x full set. I am 89% sure I am getting engaged ( I normally do my own nails and he told me to get them professionally done) What are some cute nails for an engagement???

Been thinking about creating a discord channel for brain aneurysm survivors. When I was home recovering I would of done anything to be able to have a community that I could pop on a voice channel with and vent. Something where obviously we don't share medical advice, but something to create some sort of community to share stories and success stories. I am apart of Facebook groups but there is so much division on rupture/unruptured and its sad because having a brain aneurysm is isolating enough, and we need to come together whether you have had a rupture or not. Also if one already exists LET ME KNOW.
