My mom died from an aneurysm at 39 — should I get checked?
Hi everyone,
I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately and wanted to get some advice.
My mom passed away from an aneurysm (cerebellum aneurysm) when she was 39, and it’s been on my mind more and more as I get older. I’m wondering if this is something that could be hereditary and if I might be at risk too.
Part of me wants to get checked just for peace of mind, but another part of me is worried about going down a rabbit hole and stressing over something that might never happen.
Has anyone here been in a similar situation?
Did you decide to get screened, or did you just move on without focusing too much on it?
I’d really appreciate hearing your experiences or any advice.
Thanks 🙏
