A cerebral or brain aneurysm is a cerebrovascular disease in which weakness in the wall of veins causes a localized dilation or ballooning of the blood vessel. The bursting of an aneurysm in blood vessel can cause brain death.

What does it mean if you cannot lift up the toes of your foot off the ground?
I believe the term is called " drop" foot. It is very serious. You may have an injury to the nerve that supplied the front of the foot/ankle. This nerve runs from your spine, down your back, through your butt muscles. The other area that an injury can occur is your brain.....a stroke, anuerism, tumor, degenerative disease can all cause drop foot. GO TO THE DOCTOR, please.
How is nutcracker syndrome treated?
In some cases it can be managed. Yours may not be all that serious. However it can be potentially fatal if left completely untreated. Most problems associated with nutcracker syndrome are dietary in nature -- poor nutrition or dehydration. It can also lead to heart problems -- anuerism for example, or ischemism. There are actually two associated problems -- nutcracker syndrome which is the compression of the renal vein and sma syndrome which is the compression of the duodenum. You should definitely get treatment no matter how mild your condition is (overtime it's bound to be a bad thing, putting stress on your body, especially locally like your aorta). Treatment does not always mean surgery -- in fact if it is mild, surgery may be a bad idea. Note: I am not a doctor, just someone w/ the same disorder -- I've done my own research, it's all on google.
