Hi,
I just found out that I have a 3mm aneurysm on the left side behind the eye. I found this becuase I had a sudden headache followed with blurred vision and partial numbness to the face. Doctors say it is not related to the aneurysm and it was just a coincidence that they found it. I am 36 weeks pregnant and I'm very scared and confused about all of this. I am scheduled to have a C-section on October 7th, couple of days after that, I will have an angiogram to find out if there is something they can do about it. I have been reading a lot about aneurysms and hope there is something that can be done. I am very scared. Patti |

Hugs patti,
I think I would be scared too. Would a call to your OB/GYN help soothe your worries? I am glad you are having a c-section. It will take the stress off your blood vessels and be safer for you in this situation it sounds like. It is scary just having a new baby---you have a huge added stress and worry. Over the next few weeks take care of you and the baby, that is the best thing you can do. Keep posting and let us know how you are doing-- lifesaver54 |

If your OB/GYN is not too excited, I would think it will be okay. You do have reason to worry. Oct 7 is not too far off. You need to get plenty rest and take care of you and baby. Trust in the Lord. It'll be okay.

hi karen and welcome to NT.
i'd be nervous if i was in your situation but i'm glad your drs have a handle on things. i'd suggest being aware of your blood pressure. that can go up during pregnancy and MIGHT have an impact on the aneurysm. but, i'm not a dr and i know your dr knows best. congratulations on your new baby. is it a boy or girl? i used to work in the NICU and have seen many, many women come thru c-sections with flying colors. just give yourself time to recover.
