Hello All,
Met with the surgeon today and and the result is the surgery scheduled for the next Wednesday.
Considering my age and the risk of rapture he feels the surgery is the way to go and I agree. Either way I am taking chances and I would rather go with the higher odds of survival.
The aneurysm encroached a bit on the arch and the first artery will need to be repaired as well. Valves look good and tight so hopefully no surprises there.
Going in for a CT tomorrow to check the entire vascular system, will see a cardiologist as well.
I hope to make it through and report once I am over the hurdle...
Thank you and good night to you all...
