There are neurosurgeons who specialize in this. Aneurysms are scary and you want to know you're in the best hands you can be. When I first found out about mine, that was all I could think about. I hope your girlfriend can find a doctor that she has confidence in. Where is she located?
Hi and thank you very much for your response and info! She's in FL and she has an appointment right now as I write this so I am anxiously waiting for further news and will let you know what came out of this meeting when she informs me later today. Anyway, just as you had advise, she's seeking another opinion BUT this time it's with a Neurosurgeon who specializes in more "invasive" type brain operations, the last one only did general surgeries so this person will have more knowledge and experience in this.

Please tell me, did the clipping of yours work? Did they say if it may return or not please? Thanks.
