I went to an emergency room for a heart problem. No big deal. While there my catscan showed a torn aortic artery aneurysm. I forgot to ask him about the but he said that I was being transferred to a trauma hospital because they found a torn aneurysm and I needed emergency surgery. Why? If you say it’s 1.7 cm was I sent from one hospital to another?

So I let them transfer me by ambulance to the trauma hospital. The emergency cardiovascular surgeon said that they acknowledged it but but because it wasn’t bleeding they felt it was safe to discharge me but that I needed to schedule an appointment as it was presently not bleeding. They told me to see my cardiovascular surgeon .
I actually have one.
ASAP they said.
I called my surgeon and he said that he didn’t see anything and was annoyed at my presence without an appointment. I said “ could it burst?” He said that it could and I said “you said you couldn’t see one but it could burst? Wich one is it?
He said not to worry about it and said “ See you next year!”

I’m having a 2nd opinion from my cardiologist who was upset that I hadn’t seen him in 2 years.
He said that it could be a five and you don’t know that you may need surgery. I don’t know what all your abbreviations mean but my own cardiovascular surgeon said it was torn, not bleeding, and it’s only 1.7 cm.
So the hospital transferred me to another hospital because of it and “you’re telling me it’s only 1.7 cm?” I said “I thought you didn’t see anything?” It’s time for a second opinion and I’m getting that in April
