Loss of consciousness

Loss of consciousness – another alarming symptom that may point to brain hemorrhage due to rupture of an aneurysm. Stroke is another frequent cause that may mimic the condition.
In conclusion, it is essential to know that small brain aneurysms may remain asymptomatic in most cases. While in other instances vague symptoms like moderate headaches, recurrent nausea may occur. Severe symptoms like visual disturbances, seizures, weakness on one side, mental problems are less frequent. MRI remains the golden standard in the diagnosis/differential diagnosis of many brain diseases including an aneurysm.
