Today we welcome Erin Kreszel, who has dedicated herself to raising awareness, providing support, and policymaking after losing her cousin to a ruptured brain aneurysm. Eleven years ago, she and her sister founded The Bee Foundation for Brain Aneurysm Prevention.
Erin shares some surprising statistics with us, e.g. ~1 in 50 people has one, and even someone perfectly healthy and young can have one rupture, causing a hemorrhagic stroke.
Prevention is key. It is considerably easier to treat prior to rupture. She encourages us to advocate for ourselves. Ask for the MRA if you are concerned or have a family history of aneurysms.
She explains the different treatment options for unruptured brain aneurysms, such as clipping and coiling, and the importance of early detection.
