@candles30741, we put your question about acetaminophen (Tylenol) vs. ibuprofen (Advil) and naproxen (Aleve) to a pharmacist at Mayo Clinic.

She said, "Both Advil and Aleve carry risks for the people with aneurysms including an increased risk of bleeding, stomach ulcers, cardiovascular thrombotic events and stroke. With the possible severe side effects associated with Advil and Aleve, it would be best to speak with your doctor who is familiar with your medical history to determine if either of these would be options for pain relief."

@candles30741, were you told to avoid Tylenol because of your aneurysm or another health condition?
