I’m glad you are doing good after your aneurysm repair. I will start doing my homework and start looking for a Surgeon that specializes in TAA even though my cardiologist says I’m not there yet. I’m from Texas so the major center will be in Houston, San Antonio and Austin.

What did your cardiologist mean by "not there yet"?
My cardiologist waited for over a year before telling me that I had an aortic problem.
Do these doctors just sit on the diagnosis until the patient gets so bad they can then refer us to a specialist? My cardiologist referred me to a thoracic surgeon and of course, I have open heart surgery in my future.
