Second time

Years ago I never had a head pain. The first time was when I had my first subarachnoid hemorrhage. It was 2010.          
I was at work that day, everything seemed normal that morning. I'm a builder of airport equipment for my company.
Before lunch an employee had complement on how well I looked. Right after lunch I went to my tool box to prepare
for the afternoon work. It was like I got hit in the head. I poured my water bottle on my head, and walked to the bathroom. There I lost all body fluids, I thought I had food poison! Once at the hospital and seeing red and begging
for pain meds. They did a ct, then an ango. I had my first aneurysm. The stay at the hospital was pretty scary. I went back to work after 6 weeks. The head pain seemed gone.
Now 4 years later, the same event happens. This time the MRI see it as it was larger than the first one. I started back to work again this time after 6 months off. My head pain is present when I think too hard. Is that something that other
people experience??

I would say you should definitely have it checked considering your past.  Also, just wondering, I think you said you've had 2 aneurysms, one with a hospital stay?  Could you explain a bit about that?  I am facing surgery, haven't decided if I want to take the risks, and am interested.  

Thanks, Jeannine

I can only speak from my experience, but I would say yes it is.  Is that the only after effect you are having from the ruptures?
