Hi and thanks for your reply. First off, did you have any pain coming from or around your aneurysm? I have no pain in the abdominal area where my torn aortic aneurysm is. Do I wait for pain? Or is that kind of too close for comfort?

It’s been over a week since I left my PCP another portal message with no response. I’m wondering if he dropped me. His nurse always messages me back by the end of the day but she hasn’t.

My PCP is not responding. I have a regular cardiologist but I don’t know if he handles aneurysms. I will call him to ask.

Unlike you I had a mechanical aortic heart valve replacement done in 2015 and I’ve been on a blood thinner since. I am also a type two diabetic on no meds as I’m doing good. On June 22 I had a 10:00 appointment with my PCP and I arrived 11 minutes late due to my having to rely on a non emergency transportation company. Being 11 minutes late I missed my appointment and they said it was too late.
My ride came to my home at 9:55 for a 10:00 appointment and his office is 15 minutes away. I decided to chance it but I lost.
It was rescheduled for June 26, 4 days later due to it being a weekend. The appointment was made for 11:00. The driver arrived at my home at 12:45. Much to late so I refused the ride.
I notified my PCP that I wouldn’t make it.
The non emergency transportation company is the only one in the entire state so it’s not like I can switch to a more reliable transportation provider.
Now I looked at the portal and it’s blank regarding appointments.
It’s crazy. To day I have an 11:00 appointment with another doctor and the appointment is at 11:00 and they haven’t called me to verify yet but it’s only 9:35.
My 11:00 appointment is listed in their portal as pick up time 9:30 tonight for a morning 11:00 appointment today and it says “ to arrive at 3:30!” So they are picking me up at 9:35 tonight for an afternoon appointment at 3:30 when the appointment is at 11:00 this morning.
Unbelievable

Absolutely no pain or warning. I no longer lift anything that makes me grunt, groan or hold my breath - it’s a hard rule to follow! I’m very active!
