Hello,
I'm 66yr old with 4.3 thoracic anerysim. I do not have aortic bicuspid. My Cardiologist told me to return in one year to repeat the images. My energy level is not what it was. I also have spinal stenosis multi level cervical, lumbar and S -1. The nerve is pinched in several locations and I'm awaiting surgery but first I am getting second opinions. My next appt for that is Monday. I'm also on B/P meds and diabetic. I find that some days are just better than others. I'm also a piano player/guitar and I'm playing in 2 bands. I love it but will have to take a break on that when my surgery gets scheduled. The recovery after fusing cervical multi level is going to take 6 months to a year. I'm retired now and having so much fun, I'll be happy to get the surgery and move on.
I also have a letter from my cardiologist and he's cleared me for surgery. How did they detect your aneurysm?

CT scan. Mine is a 3 cm. I’m educating myself on aneurysms. Don’t know much about them.
