A sudden seizure in a person with no history of epilepsy can be a warning sign of a serious brain problem, including a ruptured aneurysm or a cerebral hemorrhage.
7. Drooping eyelid or weakness of facial muscles
If you notice that your eyelid is starting to droop or that part of your face is numb or paralyzed, this may indicate a brain aneurysm pressing on nerves in the brain.
8. Loss of consciousness
Fainting or sudden loss of consciousness are extremely serious symptoms that may be associated with a ruptured aneurysm, leading to significant brain damage.
9. Difficulty speaking or understanding speech
Slurred speech, confusion, or difficulty understanding what others are saying may be symptoms of a neurological event, such as a stroke or a ruptured aneurysm.
10. Difficulty walking or dizziness
Sudden problems with balance, coordination, or dizziness may indicate that the aneurysm is affecting the parts of the brain responsible for movement.
11. Pain behind or around the eye
An unruptured aneurysm, especially around the eye socket, can cause local pain due to pressure on surrounding nerves.
12. Personality or behavior changes
Less common, but some people with aneurysms may experience mood swings, confusion, or behavioral changes, especially as the aneurysm grows and affects brain function.
