Hello Ems167 and welcome to Neurotalk.

I'm posting the link to the Aneurysm forum here https://www.neurotalk.org/forum7/

This particular forum doesn't get much traffic but you can post there and see if you get any responses. Sometimes folks will just respond to your post in the New Members forum.

There is also another forum for general health conditions and rare disorders. Here is a link to that forum https://www.neurotalk.org/forum2/.

My friend said I was a Anuerysms survivor. I said they have to rupture to be considered a survivor. Who’s correct? It sounds petty and trivial but was just wondering.
Even today it all doesn’t seem real because it was found completely by accident on a yearly check up for FMD. I had the surgery and was fine 5 days after. Perhaps because I had such a great suergon I never had a moment where I didn’t think I was going to be fine and this was a small bump in the road. So it’s hard to think of being a survivor. Anyone have any feed back?
