Hello everyone. I am so sad and scared today.

I got an MRI for weird tingling symptoms (I'm kind of a hypochondriac and figured that was what they would tell me) well, lo and behold it showed I have a small 2mm aneurysm in the left middle cerebral artery.

Since the diagnosis, I have been a total wreck. The doc sent me home and I don't even get to consult with a neurosurgeon until March 16th. Apparently no one but me is concerned this thing is going to rupture anytime soon.

This is like a horrible nightmare. I have learned that I should not smoke...so I guess that means I have to give up weed. Hell, I also learned I shouldn't strain too much when taking a crap because that can bust it. So now I am scared to take a crap. Just when I need the weed the most I have to give it up...I'm taking Ativan but I hate pills and it's just not the same

I'm tempted to ask the neurosurgeon when I go what he thinks but I won't be able to if my grandmother is there with me cuz she doesn't know I smoke. (I'm 29 but I still pretend to be the perfect little girl.) If she found out I'm a huge pothead, or was it would break her heart on top of this aneurysm stuff.
