A brain aneurysm is a bulge or ballooning in a blood vessel in the brain and there may not be symptoms if it hasn’t ruptured.
Kim began: “I did a Prenuvo scan, and they called me today, and they’re like, ‘Everything looks great. But you have an aneurysm in your brain’.
“They’re like, ‘It’s been there for like years. It was here a few years ago’.
