Yes, I am still very anxious.
I am concerned that Dr may be looking to 5.5 cm for surgery.
It’s sad that we are hoping he will be diagnosed with Marfan syndrome, so his surgery can be expedited!
We are canceling a two month vacation we had planned in July and August. We don’t want to be too far from major hospitals for the rest of the year.

I don't blame you. What reason are you given for the delay, beyond Marfan? Is it an issue with the insurance? My understanding is that 5.0 is the line in the sand. If your doctor is saying 5.5, I'd ask him why. I wouldn't go on a vacation either. I don't plan to get on an airplane again. I hate flying anyway and this makes a good excuse. Let us know how things progress for your husband.
