Anyone with RA and cerebral aneurysms?

[JudyAnn]

Just diagnosed with RA, and 10 years post aneurysm rupture and clipping with 2 unruptured ones still present. I'm just wondering whether it's best to see a neurologist to make sure the treatment is not going to effect the aneurysms adversely. Thanks for any input, Judy Ann

I have a inoperable brain aneurysm ( have had it allmost 8 years ) I have OA, I have had this since my early 30's..There is alot of stuff I can not take for my OA , that if I did , would hurt me greatly. Cause of the aneurysm, Mainly aspirin,,I'm only allowed a baby aspirin daily,,To keep a stent open,,No more than that,,I have a fusiform aneurysm that balloons over the stent,,Was unable to get coils due to a stroke..It is 1cm long and about 8mm wide..Last checked..I feel for you,,I have OA allover my body,,And it is terrible,,I just can not imagine having RA,,You are in my prayers, Cindy
