This is exactly how I was when I was diagnosed, unfortunately my daughter at 4 days old had to have a balloon operation done. While we were in recovery with her, one of the doctors -who found out I have aortic stenosis and have not been following it - made me an appointment to get an echo done. They found the 5.1cm aneurysm but didn't have me scheduled for a follow up from a cardiologist. They uploaded the findings on their portal and I happened to look at the results. When I came across the severe aortic aneurysm on the report I immediately googled it and may have been the worst decision I have made - I had never felt that amount of stress enter my body... I wasn't able to speak to a cardiologist for 24 hours where she was able to relieve some stress and anxiety by talking with me. So I am willing to take any and all advice on how to continue to live life.
