Tying to decide when I should have surgery?

@johnroy -I am like you very reluctant, but I wonder what happened with Senator Lindsey Graham? Did he know he had an aneurysm? Did he know his measurements? Clearly, he waited too late. I’m just trying to avoid this for myself. I’m sure you’re thinking along the same lines, but this surgery is no walk in the park. It’s a tough decision for all of us.

@sarastewart

He may have. A lot of primary care doctors and general cardiologists don't take it serious because they don't grasp coming up with a plan in the ER or paramedics on the floor somewhere isn't a plan. That or not knowing is the same outcome.
