After my second seizure and subsequent fall, they performed another CT and an MRI and again found nothing. This is the first MRI that I have had since the accident. I am confused as to why this wasn't noticed before. I have none of the risk factors associated with aneurysms except they do mention head trauma could be a contributing factor. He did say that my headaches were not coming from this area. I am having a CT with contrast done on Friday. Has anyone heard of developing an aneurysm following a fall?
Honestly no I haven't. But I am finding this interesting for someone I know.

I will be waiting to hear what you find out. My daughter in law needs
to be seen. To rule out something is going on now that happened
13 or so years ago didn't cause some problems.
