I have fmd in both carotid arteries, the basilar artery that goes up via the brainstem and one more cerebral artery. Unfortunately, I don't know anything about a possible for me aneurysm or degreed of stenosis, only irregularities in the walls and increased musculature. Getting no answers from follow-up doctors. Am a nurse since 1981, live alone, if I don't have time to raise the alarm, no one will find me, want to plan for my life and my pets but get no answers. Is well read in FMD.
I had several attacks this summer of rotational vertigo, tinnitus, vomiting and imbalance even when watching, when I close my eyes had imbalance since 2015. Had a TIA last year. Has a daily headache, nausea, imbalance, tinnitus in the left but briefly also in the right ear.
Am very tired. When I got my rotation vertigo I couldn't see as it was spinning so fast, crawled to the toilet to vomit could last for 6 hours but the symptoms for 5 days, after the last one I still have all the symptoms. No symptoms before other than imbalance.

MRA is the test for aneurysm. You seem to have some of symptoms for aneurysm, like headaches and dizziness.
I had those symptoms in 2022 and saw 8 doctors. It was number 8 doctor who is neurologist ordered MRA test to diagnose my aneurysm.
