Hey man. Thanks your posting. You're going to be okay. You're in good hands. LISTEN to your doctors. Get the surgery. Organize your bills, work schedule, personal papers, etc. to simplify things for your spouse/family during your recovery. Your doctors caught it and that's just the best news ever! You do not want to ignore this condition and knowing about it is 95% of the battle. I did not know I had an aneurysm until it burst at age 50. You do not want that. You're good though because you know. Relax. No smoking, drinking, or lifting anything. Just listen to your doctors. After you've had surgery and feel better, get back out here, post about your recovery, and help others facing what you survived. It will do wonders for others. I'm so happy for you to know. Peace and we'll talk to you on the other side of surgery if not before then!
