Thoracic aortic aneurysm: Anyone had surgery?

I have none of the normal "causes" for this, it is a mystery. It is hard to find any information that is not "doctor targeted". Even the doctors don't talk about the "journey". You are either ready for surgery or not ready. The part that we all deal with in between finding out and getting it fixed seems to be ignored as if it is not important. I don't know about the rest of you but it is important enough to be on my mind a lot. It is nice to have this connection to people that have the same thing on their mind and understand that it is a big deal.

Thank you - completely agree - I can’t stop thinking about it and not sure if I did this to my self through gnc supplements as was sensitive to palpitations the following days even though the dr’s say unlikely. Can’t find normal cause either. At 47 all I can do is hope and pray for my self and my family- have 2 babies so the journey is rough.
