Mine is 4.1 right now as it was just discovered a few weeks ago but I also don’t want to wait until it gets all the way to five or 5.5. I understand they won’t do anything now, but I’m being rechecked in six months and if it shows it’s growing, I’d rather get it taken care of sooner than later when the survival chances are better. This whole thing is totally freaking me out. Now every time my back hurts I am afraid it’s a potential dissection. This is really messing with my life. Like so many people post on here I too tried to live a healthy lifestyle, exercise regularly, so I don’t have any idea where this came from but here I am. I’m so grateful for this group .
