Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm 5.1cm- worried

Hi @shiju5
So glad to hear he is recovering well and surgery was a success. I know after mine the hardest part was the initial getting out of bed hours after surgery. But it is so important to get up and move- not only for muscle and heart recovery but to help prevent complications like blood clots. The moving doesn’t feel good at the time though for sure! Best wishes to you all for his continued recovery!

Thankyou for your support. Yes, moving is hard. And his hear rate is high 130, so they are doing ekg and his stomach is bloated so an xray to see if things are normal. One of the chest tubes still in place which may be taken out today.
