@professorkrh I told my husband being diagnosed w this aneurysm is a blessing and a curse. It’s a blessing because I know I have it and it’s a curse because I know I have it. It’s all I think about, especially when my time isn’t being occupied, as soon as I sit down for the day, it all comes back. Im hoping w time it gets easier to live with. I’ve only known about it since 6/29/26. I guess it’s like telling a cancer patient not to think about having cancer, it’s impossible NOT to think about it. Im grateful I know and that I am being monitored but the scary part is the waiting. Take care!!

Agree. Blessing & curse.
69 Female 4.1 Ascending Aortic Aneurysm near arc branch of aorta. Ho to Mayo in JAX to monitor but really would like a local specialist. In Charleston, SC or Greenville or move… only concern is who to monitor it and be preemptive and get sleep w a plan.
