I’m so happy to hear your success story! I have an Ascending Thoracic Aneurysm also. About 6 months ago it was 5.0cm. I have been thinking because I am 77 years old that I will not have surgery.

I'm 79 and in good shape.
When I heard I'm having an 5,2 cm AAA in September 2024, I decided " oh no, I never will undergo such a major surgery".
But 6 month later the CD showed, it was 5,3 cm.
I had a consultation with my surgeon again. He explained everything to my husband and me so understandable, that I trusted him, EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OK.

Dr. XYDAS and his team are geniuses. If you see me now, 4 month later, I'm totally back to normal as before. I'm doing my exercises and daily work, like nothing has happened.

Wishing you the same.
