What Causes Frequent Headaches?
Hello, I went for an MRI scan as I had been getting frequent headaches. Also, brain aneurysms and strokes do run in my family. My MRI indicated; Normal MRI scan. However, in the findings it stated that the ventricle and sulci are mildly prominent, but is not out of proportion to the patients age. I was 59 yrs of age at the time of the scan and I am now 60 yrs. what does this actually mean? Am I staring to have brain atrophy? If so, is there something that I can do such as nutrition and supplements to prevent further decline. Thank you. Christine B
