I worry about it constantly!

I worry too. I had a lower rupture in October 2021 and after 2 months in the hospital a second surgery and a stroke was able to go home.
The recovery was slow because I was afraid to push it for fear it would happen again. Two years later the rupture remains at 4 and I am told I am a walking wonder. I don’t know if that help with my worrying at all. I still have back pain and know that is a sign.
Finally I understand that there are mental side effects from the stroke that could contribute to my fears.

Be strong and glad to be alive.

How do you know you have a rupture? Did you have any symptoms ? I’m a bit concerned because I have a descending aneurysm they are watching.
June 1 of this year I had
Surgery on a thoracic aneurysm. Went back to work in 3 months. Still
Recovering. Stamina not there yet but pushing it.
High stress job.
When I had my post CT angiogram I was shocked to know I had yet another
Aneurysm.
