My cardiovascular surgeon has finally gotten a portal and I can see all my upcoming appointments. All those tests you mentioned I am getting this month included the and thoracic test which is a measurement inside my heart and aorta. Have an aortic mechanical heart valve and a 3.9 cm torn aorta artery aneurysm and he will look at that because even though it’s far from 5cm it has a slight rupture in it and he may go in and fix it witch is considered common once it develops a tear. They might want to catch it before it grows and becomes a full blown rupture which is potentially fatal. I have an echocardiogram ,
The ABT thing ( I forgot the name) so he will check the mech aortic valve and the aneurysm down in my abdomen then do a follow up. I’m in good hands 👌
