Hello everyone!
I'm new to this site, but was looking for a few answers (or questions) from people who have maybe gone through the same situation.
I am a 31 year old female, and in February had a MRA done (because of a migraine) and they found an infundibulum at the junction of my Posterior Communicating Artery and Internal Carotid Artery. I met with a neurologist, who seemed to think like it wasn't much to worry about, but because of my age wanted me to have a follow up scan in 6 months, to make sure it hadn't changed.
I was given the MRA because my birth mother died at age 29 from a brain aneurysm, and the doctor wanted to make sure there wasn't something there. And partially my anxiety as well, I had just lost my step-mom to a brain aneurysm 5 months earlier.
So I guess my questions are:
Has anyone else had this show on their scans? If so what have you been told about it.
What questions should I be asking my doctor that I haven't?
Has anyone had an Infundibulum turn into an aneurysm?
Thanks in advance!
