Aneurysm grew 4.1 to 4.7 in one year - which questions should I ask?

@scottbliz my husband was diagnosed with an Ascending Aorta Aneurysm, with a leaky valve, about 8 years ago. Apparently it showed up in older films, (2006) but, he wasn’t informed. He started around 4.2 and his last was 4.4. So it’s very slow growing. Recently he has been having trouble stabilizing his BP, and off we go to his Cardiologist to see what’s going on. He is seen or tested by his team every 6 months. Good luck.

@dlc1953 Mine was a 3.9 3 years ago and my cardiologist said he probably would never have to do anything about it. They are slowing growing but then the next yr it was 4.1 then 4.4 then boom 4.7 so I was referred to a surgeon. Will see him next week. Thank you for the info
