I feel dreadful. I don't know if its all psychosomatic(spelling?) but my head is sort of always pumping. Its not hurting just feels like blood trying to squeeze through. I've been taking paracetamols which helps. But just so scared - should I be worried?
Added to this I now realise I do have other symptoms - I'm always grasping for words - thought it was just aging - very sensitive to smells and have coughing fits. Literally cough and my nerve ends all over my body hurt. Anything from marzipan to cleaning fluids can set it off. Is this because of my poorly brain?
It would be good to hear from someone as I'm a bit alone here.

I'm sorry to hear about your aneurysm. I am praying for you. I have one that is 8.5mm on the top of my basilar and have 5 arteries feeding into it. Let me know if they can help you. Do you have any arteries feeding into to your aneurysm? I grasp for words and have the pumping feeling also, especially when i bend over or get upset, sometimes just by standing up it will happen. All this is so scarey but everyone on here will help you get through it. They have been helping me. If you need anything just reply. Your in my prayers,
Cheri
