My ENT wasnt that concerned and the nero wasnt that concerned. They said it was small, (advice: just dont do any contact sports or lift anything heavy.) I am freaking out. I am a VERY healthy 46 year old woman. What is any of your takes on this. Should I freak or not....??? I would have never known i had this if it wasnt for the MRI no symtoms at all, other than I feel dizzy but that has been going for much of my life. I have allergies so I think a lot of it now is just congestion in my head. but, now I am having panic attacks!!

I am leaving to go out of town for a week tomorrow. They said it was OK to travel. Thanks for any of your thoughts

Dear Suzi: I know about the not lifting, lifting anything over 10lbs causes blood to rush to the brain, with an aneurysm, you don't want that to happen, also keep your blood pressure down until you go to a specialist
