Many thanks for the responses to my latest post. The “good vibes” really do help!
Saw the vascular surgeon yesterday and as was expected this aneurism must be dealt with as quickly as possible. But of course, more tests must be done prior to that happening. It would seem that I am a member, although unwillingly, of the “go big or go home” group.
Because of the size and location of the aneurism, I am not a candidate for a stent implant, but must have open surgery for repair and the possibility of requiring a custom implant to allow blood flow to my kidneys. Surgery is tentatively scheduled for Feb 5, depending on test results.
I thought waiting for TURBT results was a test of one’s stamina; but waiting with a bomb ticking in your belly takes it to a whole new level!
Once again, thanks for being there.
