What's your alternative?
Live without any surgery until your aneurysm burst, and you vomit blood or internal bleeding.
Both result in death. Very few reach hospital In Time, remember that.
And to live in Fear, 'will my aneurysm burst today or not'?
I'm still alive and happy for every day I get, even with my new limitations.
😃

EVAR is the best course my Vascular surgeon has told me when and IF the time comes for my AAA. As of today I feel blessed. Two illeac stents each leg and two bilateral renal to get blood to my kidneys fully for the 1st time in likely two decades. GOD is great.

Yes , I realize I’ll have to do something eventually, just got 2nd opinion from a reputable surgeon today, he’s got the measurement @ 4.7 along with a Ct radiologist said 4.5 and a mri radiologist (different cause they discovered surprise pre cancerous cyst in my pancreas while checking this AAA) the Sloan Kettering radiologist measured at 4.6 , so vasc surgeon yesterday said he would wait on EVAR and sono again in June it’s not near enough to the 5-5.5cm threshold , I hope it stops growing for a while thanks!
