7.9 ? That's way beyond when they say it will typically rupture. Wow. Thank God they caught it! I hope you are healing or have healed well. I have heard that there is no way to shrink AAA. I have one that is 4.79 and I'm a mess. It's on my mind 24/7. I have pain in the right side of my abdomen thru to my back that is dull. Don't know if it the AAA or just my sleeping position. I've had this pain on and off for years and doctors tell me they cannot figure it out. So, I'm a bit unnerved. Ugh.

I completely understand, after repairing my ruptured AAA I now have chronic aortic dissection and they’re monitoring it as well. On my mind 24/7… I just keep asking God to give me strength, healing, and peace… I will pray for yours as well.❤️

I just found out about mine and it is 4.8. On my mind constantly. Why can’t they just go in and fix it instead of waiting for it to get to 5.5? I feel like a human time bomb just waiting for the worst to happen.
