Aneurysm and seizures
 

I was diagnosed w/a 2cm annie behind left eye and a 8.5cm forming annie in the basilar willis section. Last wednesday and sunday I experienced 2 seizures. Is this normal? Am not on medication or treatment for the annies. Am supposed to go back for another angiogram next May. Don't have insurance or money and am not sure what to do. Had both when diagnosed, but employer would not keep me employed because job was high stress and dr said I needed a low stress job. That's a joke. Have applied for disability, am on second try. If siezures are normal, what could be causing them?

hi.
I hope someone with some good wisdom will answer you soon. You need help
First of all, Is it possible you could get some help to see a neurologist ASAP?
First you need to have the seizure situation looked after.
And I thought the guidelines for repairing unruptured aneurysm are that anything above 6 mm, they will repair. Anything smaller, they just keep monitor.
You may need to look for a different neurologist. Look for a interventional neurologist.

as far as your employment goes, hopefully you can see a good lawyer.to look into the ligality of your job termination
Your employer has unlawfully terminated you as far as I know.
I think there is a law called " Americans with disabilities, where employer must make reasonable adjustment in your job disription to avoid the stress which is your situation
In the mean time, also get a lawyer to help with the dissability application
Hopefully you could get some help from the social section

hi again issmers
As a matter of fact, if you have no money to see a doctor, because, if you think you have had a seizure, and we already know you have 2 aneurysms, you must see a doctor.
Just go to the ER. there are laws, they have to treat you,
And regarding the lawer to look into the ligality of your employer terminating you, theese lawyer often do not charge money unless they winn for you

Thank you so much for your advise. It is much appreciated. I have an appt Wed with the OU Bedlam Clinic here in Oklahoma. They diagnosed my Fibro and will charge on sliding scale basis. They did an MRI (head to hips), muktiple CAT Scans and drew so much blood I thought I was donating, and did not charge anything, then, in 2006. Things have changed for them financially, so now it's a sliding scale, but since my husbamd only brings home 1000.00-1100.00 per month I think it will be reasonable. If I have another seizure B-4 then I'm going to take your suggestion and go to St. John's in Tulsa (50 miles away) and present myself to the emergency room. I thought with seizures u had to be in episode or they couldn't do anything. Our local hospital is not set up for any kind of real emergency. Thanks again-Lee
