Embolization of cerebral aneurysm
 

I had endovascular embolozation with stent assisted coiling of unruptured cerebral aneurysm. I have had fallow up angiograms, and everything seems to have healed and stent stable, I was very lucky.
Does any one have any good statistics of how long theese are stable?

wow, are there not many people in this forum? I used aneurysm for awhile before my coining, have been using SSDI forum now. my cerebral aneurysm was coiled 3 years ago. they did an angio at 3 mo two time, then 6mo and then at one year...he will not do those anymore. now I will have ct scans yearly. I don't know that it will ever have to be done again

have u been left with any disabilities from that? I have only found one person besides me that have. ss I can't answer your question. I wish u well though

Hi Granny K
No, I have not been left with any disabilities from the aneurysm. It was an unruptured aneurysm, so I was lucky it was found before it ruptured. But I did have one mishap, I had a tiny small stroke due to my neurologist had taken me off the Plavix a little too early, so 5 - 6 days after I had what they said was a stentrelated event. I did have parasthesia in right arm, and what they said a little slurred speach that lasted only for a couple of minutes. I got my strengt right back.
You mentioned you had some ill effect from your aneurysm repair? Did you have a cloth or a bleed? How is your BP? Are you on blood thinners?
I am on ASA and Plavix.
Hope you are doing well
