help understanding who would be the best doc in the nation to help him,so far the local med center has said that a coil put into this problem area would possibly contain the enlarged vein,that too we know nothing about, the pro's con's of that type of repair are unknown to us as well and when it come's to some doctor's we understand you must be careful who you trust, can anyone out their tell me what could be the smart choice for him, and in the united states who is the most respected doctor that can do this with the lowest amount of risk to my father based on job skills and track record, i truly understand i am asking for alot of info but my dad really needs my help and i'm asking for yours, thank you so much for any help to better understand whats best, --please have a good day.

My first concern is you!! This is a tuff time for your family. The best place I go to is, www.mayoclinic.com and the national institute of health [www.nih.gov] is also very good!! My best friend of 30 years survived not one but two aneurysms burst in her brain!! There was no more then a severe headache before they happened and this was back in 1989 and then again in 1997. Never underestimate the power of prayer!!!! And this week you and yours are added to my prayer list. Best wishes..stay strong for him--give him lots of xoxoxoxox

I can't give you a good doctor. I am sorry. It may be operable but in most cases aneurysms are inoperable and you just have to wait until it ruptures. I have known several people with the second who lived many more good years before it occured and when the time came they went quickly.
I hope that you will find a good doctor and that things will work out for you dad.

I'm sorry to hear that you are going through such a difficult time. The best advice I can give you is to have your father's doctor refer him to an experienced neurogist. Do internet searches and lots of prayer. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Sorry about your dad. Hope this helps. Go to this site. http://www.ninds.nih.gov. They have top notch doctors there. They also have clinical trials he may be a candidate for.

You can find out how many procedures that has done, success rate, etc. The coiling procedure is widely done and successful.

Check out WWW.DrClark.com IMMEDIATELY!
He probably could get to normal state in 3 weeks, following Dr. Clark's remedy.
