I have an aortic aneurysm 4.3 that they're watching. Not really sure what I can do about it and really don't think about it. I get a CT every year. I just had sigmoidectomy so the aneurysm is low on my list. Also have a meningioma on the brainstem and had radiation. Basically just in the wait and see stage. I'm 78 and have had it for at least 5 years.

@carsok Wait and see, that's about where we all are at. As long as the Dr. are watching it and you continue to get the CT scans when they say that is about all you can do. Be nice to our body/heart. Eat healthy, get exercise etc... I am trying to follow through with these things, but I am lacking. It's good that your's had stayed at 4.3cm for so long. You must be doing something right. Keep it up.

god bless you. I understand.
