Originally when diagnosed, the VA told me to quit....I kept asking dr's until I found one who said it's ok...now not really sure....I do play lead, the one dr told me playing wouldn't increase pressure on the anuerysm if playing didn't increase blood pressure, which it doesn't......

Tough call having to choose between what makes you happy to live and what might be living dangerously. If possible, I'd ask to play for your doctor so she/he could see what goes on when you play. Did several doctors tell you it wasn't a good idea and only one said it was okay?
