Hello Ryan and bad luck that you're tired. But how are you

Morning..I tiredddd ha

Morning to you too.. Me is tired too.. My trip wore my tailfeathers out and now I have to pay the fiddler.. Took a cruise on the bay in frisco and saw the aquarium on the bay too while I was there.. in between testing..

I was on the phone several times yesterday with Standford cause my blood work came back with lots of red flags and between their tests and the doctors here he thinks he may have found something that may be the underlying problem.. He has referred me to Stanford Rhuematology?? They deal with Auto immune diseases.. He said he thinks he knows what it is That I have, but wants more tests to verify his findings.. So I will go see this specialist and have more labs!

Monthly visits to check these anuerysms..! Its a waiting game No surgery until I get better as far as the immune problem goes.. He is hoping my Anuerysm holds out so I have time to get well and reach some sort of remission of the underlying problem.. with the mycoplasma bacterias etc... He does not believe I would make it if he operated now so wants me to build my immune system and get better.. etc.. But if I hit 5 before that happens then we will be forced into early surgery with far greater risks for me.. so We are trying to take off a few pounds.. which I WILL DO! And boost my system get better.. which means providing sufficient oxygen to the heart at night with my cpap machine.. trying to get better sleep to allow my body to heal.. which is easier said then done and may require sleep aides.. Then adding a Calcium chanel blocker and a cholesterol med to try to slow the aneurysms growth down to give me more time for recovery from the bad bacteria's. Anyway wellness or 5 centimeters is the surgery point and the big aneurysm is now grown from 4.5 to 4.7 so .. thats in a short time.. so its a waiting game.

When surgery gets here they will be replacing my aorta with  a material called Flexon.. which the tissue he tells me will grow back over and take over my aortas Job.. They well also be replacing the Aorta valve with a mechanical valve that will supposedly out last me! but will have lots of blood thinners for life to prevent clotting on the metal valve.. I think he said it was Titanium or something.. I have several bad valves that will be attended at she same time... I am having Conary artery spasms and I also Have Raynauds phenomenom... LOts of new things to learn about and to treat!
