Diren P Hi Tom. No, I haven't had surgery yet. I'm having a CT scan next week and I have an appointment with my cardiologist next month. My aorta is 4.7 - 4.8 cm in diameter. I don't know if there's any extra dilation. I'm hoping to postpone the surgery at least until the end of the year, but I don't know what my doctors will recommend.
Tom Sabourin I wish you all the best and success when you do have surgery!
