your not paranoid. The Drs are busy and its no big deal to them. I see your concern. I have a similar situation. Bottom line is i was told if it goes i will be dead before i hit the ground. On the bright side, no pain or lingering. So, i go about my daily living and hope for the best. Its up to you how to deal with it.

Deankin, in case you missed it , I did mention the size of the aneurysm. As of 3 years ago it was at 3cm. Not bad but I’m on blood thinners and I’m wondering if having the thin blood can cause it to get through the walls of the aneurysm as I have a tear in it but I don’t know how long that tear is. I’m also on a blood pressure medication and it’s doing the job of keeping my BP low so I’m not concerned about it. Why would 2 separate cardiovascular surgeons from 2 different hospitals see it and they both believe that I need to close that tear but my own cardiovascular surgeon said he didn’t see it and “see you next year “. He rushed my appointment and appeared annoyed that I would waste his time on it.
