Aortic aneurysms: What you need to know

[@williamtrott7192]

I just had surgery to replace the aorta valve and repair a 5.2cm aneurysm5 days ago. It hurts like hell still but I am home and alive. Good information!

[@Doorass-uu8nv]

I had the same surgery as you three years ago. My heart surgeon says no lifting more then 10 pounds (Stanford hospital) and my current cardiologist says no lifting more then 25 lbs. That's the downfall

[@Doorass-uu8nv]

But l lift weights almost everyday, run/walk a lot. Just lost almost 50 pounds with keto life style

i have a 4.9cm and never had any symptoms, am about to fix it too.

I had an aortic valve replacement in 2013, open heart surgery. 3 months to recover. Had another replacement done in 2021, then they noticed an enlarged aortic artery. Just recently was having issues with a cough and phlegm. I have a tilted larynx. Had a ct scan on upper chest/neck area and found the aneurysm 4.1.

Diagnosed with a 4.0 cm aortic aneurysm June 2021. But, I am having symptoms of heart failure; chest pain when walking in grocery store only 10 minutes, chest pressure when standup at work and running around. Light chest pressure when I sleep. But, here is the thing...I fell in 2022 and I broke my ankle and damaged ligaments and tendons and I have to have scar tissue removed and or have my ligaments more stabilized after my employer's, insurance company and work comp' doctors minimized and falsified my records. I would have a blood clot and then a heart attack. But, what surgery is more important and can I have ankle surgery with a failing heart?

[@cristykoole8141]

Call your insurance and ask them for a list of neurologist that accepts your insurance. You might have to change doctor . Once you find a doctor that you trust and find helpful they should put in a referral to a neurologist. Your neurologist should be aware of all the symptoms you’re having. Make a list if you can and inform him /her how long it’s been happening and any other concerns you might have. The more they know about your symptoms the easier it should be for them to get you the proper testing and treatment. I wish you well and hope this information helps you navigate your concerns.

Listen to your body. Don’t wait till your symptoms become worse. Schedule an appointment with your doctor . Write down all your symptoms, note how long you’ve been having them and any other questions you might have. Don’t wait till it’s too late.

Vaccines are associated with blood clots, but AAA is not a blood clot. You don't know what you're talking about.

[@alchemist1111]

Aneurysms take a while to grow, it is likely anyone experiencing this in the last year or two had the aneurysm before the 😷 or the 💉. I had a dissection in 2022, I am not 💉’ed. I did have the 😷 several months before it happened, maybe either one can exacerbate the preexisting problem, I don’t know.
