Less than a month ago I had a stress test which I passed with flying colors. Less than a week ago I had a regular visit with my doctor and everything was fine. On Wednesday, Sept. 9, 2015, I had to have an ultra sound done on liver because of cyst. It was a routine test just to make sure it didn't get bigger. Well, I got more than I bargained for. They found an abdominal aortic aneurysm and that about 5.3 centimeters. So, I called my cardiologist and doctor and went home. I was working in the yard digging post holes and I had another heart attack. My first heart attack was the widowmaker back in April 2011. Anyway, I'm home now and surgery will be required to fix the aneurysm because a cat scan showed it was over 6 centimeters and very dangerous. I'm doing good but really restricted as to what I can do. Probably have surgery in less than 2 months. This was accidentally caught and I can't stress enough that people need to be proactive in their health screenings.
