Has anyone ever shrunk an Aneurysm?

I just found out about mine and it is 4.8. On my mind constantly. Why can’t they just go in and fix it instead of waiting for it to get to 5.5? I feel like a human time bomb just waiting for the worst to happen.

I know what you mean, I feel the same… kind of like a dark cloud always over my head. Still adjusting and trying to make this my “new normal” and try to not think about it all the time.

I feel the same way.
Mine was 3.7 in 2017 and is 4.0 now, so I'm thanking our Lord that it hasn't gotten much larger over the last seven years. I am very active, but I need to get back to exercising more. And I have been referred to Johns Hopkins for genetic testing for Marfan Syndrom. First available appointment was in August.
