Hi There,
Welcome to NT, I hope u find the answers that u are looking for. The first thing I supose that needs to be asked is where the annie is, wot size and type of annie.
I have 3 annies ranging from 2mm to 7mm. I have 2 that are in a high risk area and Im 1 week out from seeing my surgeon.
Yes there are many people who have small annies that are on a "wait and watch" program. Unfortunately aneurysms arent something that can just be left as rupture can be devastating. Always best that they are discovered and dealt with before that happens.
Back to your question, yes there are many people who have had 3 - 6mm aneurysms "dealt" with thru coiling or clipping.
Im certainly no expert and I have only recently discovered mine after a series of incidents that were directly related to the annies.
Good luck, do some research n reading, there is an endless supply of information. And ask plenty of questions. I was sent to The Brain aneurysm Foundation site which is a great source of information.
Sending u lots of happy smiley vibes
Cass
