Aneurysms

Hi,

my father died of a ruptured brain aneurysm causing sub arachnoid brain hemorrhage at the age of 47.

i was curious how that would effect myself, would i be more prevalent? and are there any statistics revealing information on the likelihood on someone male under the age of 35.

    its not inherited or anything like that. just the slightest head movement like sneezing or coughing or even straining while having a bowel movement can cause this. although IT is rare, can happen. did he have health problems to cause this?? I have alot of knowledge about this because I suffer from health anxiety and this was one of my many worries. what would put you at high risk for this is high blood pressure, smoker, obesity, diabetes etc
