My cardiologist told me about the ibuprofen. It was always my drug of choice. 🙂 The more I research, the more I find things that I need to avoid. I have osteopenia and I was taking a D3/K2 supplement for my bones. Can't take K2 with an aneurysm. It could potentially contribute to the progression of the aneurysm by increasing vascular calcification. D3 is good. I also have osteoarthritis and I was taking Collagen peptides for hip discomfort. Can't take that because it could potentially worsen the aneurysm by affecting the structural integrity of the aortic wall.
Crazy that you have something growing inside you that you didn't know you had. Now you know and you have to find what things are good and what to avoid. I don't take any other supplements, so I'm good there. I'm grateful for my diagnosis. This blog is also very useful for gathering information from the experiences of others.
Happy New Year!!
