Hello @ronnie4685

I'd like to invite @alafleur, @fjc1962, @harvlori and @bobbyknik who all posted about their aneurysms reaching 5.0.

@ronnie4685, those are two considerably different measurements. 5.0 is the general rule measurement where surgery is considered by many providers. It is understandable that waiting 6 months has caused some anxiety and wondering. Were you advised on any lifestyle changes during this waiting period?
