Are you having it via a catheter done through your legs. I know now it’s minimally evasive. You should be fine. My dad had it done conventionally and he he was fine. It just a rough recovery because it’s abdominal surgery and they cut through the muscle as is standard for abdominal surgery. Don’t worry either was you will be fine and that’s what matters

Thanks for the reassurance! Glad he’s doing well , best wishes to him going forward

Diane:
Glad to hear your dad is doing ok. I too had my aneurysm/dissection repaired conventionally this last December. I was wondering how long was his recovery and did experience any type of “episodes “ during the recovery period?
Thanks,
Dan
