I know a little bit about many cardiac and pulmonary conditions. I even worked in a lab making guidewires for angioplasty.
But an aneurysm, I know next to nothing about, except frightening images from tv dramas. I have a 4 cm aneurysm on my descending aorta. Is it as bad as it sounds? I am very very frightened of it. I can't sleep. It makes me cry. I don't see my doctor until Wednesday. All I want is big strong trusted arms around me, and a soothing voice. I'm so scared. I know nothing about it. I can't find much on the internet. And what I do know, is from dramatic fictional storylines.
