Brain bleeding from aneurysm that bursts

Dear Dr. Donohue: A friend of mine, 46 years old, with a wife and two children, died of a stroke. I also heard he died of a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Are they the same? He was the picture of health and was devoted to exercise. Could his exercise be responsible? He was almost a fanatic about it? — P.M.

Reply: A subarachnoid hemorrhage is a special kind of stroke. It's due to the bursting of an aneurysm on one of the brain arteries. Aneurysms are small, balloon-like protrusions of a brain artery. They're weak spots. "Subarachnoid" indicates that the artery is below one of the brain's coverings — the arachnoid. It's the same place where cerebrospinal fluid circulates. A rush of a large volume of blood into this space compresses the brain and compromises its function. The increased pressure on the brain adds to the threat of death.

Sometimes these weak bulges have been there from birth. In most instances, they arise during life. High blood pressure, smoking and excessive intake of alcohol contribute to their development. From 10 million to 15 million Americans have a cerebral aneurysm.Only a small percentage of these people die.

At the beginning of the hemorrhage, the person complains of a terrible headache, the worst he or she has ever had. The person becomes unresponsive and slips into a coma. This type of stroke has a high mortality rate, around 50 percent.

Answer your question about the devotion of your friend to exercise and its influence on his death is difficult. Exercise did not cause the aneurysm to form. In exceptional circumstances, it might have caused the aneurysm to break.Difficulty lifting a heavy load, taking the breath has been described as a possible reason for the failure of such problems artery.
