I FINALLY received a copy of my angio CT showing asending aortic aneursym of 5.1 c.m. I thought you all might find it of interest. The report indicates a "4.3 cm measurement just above the coronaries and 5.1cm in the mid-thoracic aorta. The remainder of the arch appears normal in architecture".
Ironically, my wife had emergency surgery yesterday for three abdominal wall tears that impacted her lower intestinal track. All went well. However, as we were entering the hospital, I ran into my cardiologist who seemed stunned we were there. I thought about joking about having palpatations, but I thought better of it. He asked if I had heard from the Dr. McCarthy's office yet for a review of my case (which I had not). He said if I do not hear from them within two days to call him so he can intercede (which makes me worry). Can this be something that requires more serious attention? I've been thinking that I have time. And I want to have my wife in there with me.
I'd appreciate any comments.
