For those who don't know I was 34 weeks pregnant when I dissected. In fact over half of the AD cases in women are pregnancy related, usually in 3rd trimester or shortly after birth. 2 percent of…Continue

GERD

I've noticed that there are a few of us ladies at another site, that all developed GERD after surgery/AD. And not just a light case, the kind of GERD that feels like extreme chest pain, in fact I…Continue

Kimberlee Jones posted a blog postI'm over the why me....
I've done a lot of thinking these days, about what it is that still upsets about my AD. I've long since past the feeling sorry for myself, the why me, again?(I have had a few prior surgeries, not heart related) What lingers on and on and frustrates me still is that I can't go one day without something causing me to think about my AD and my current aneurysm. Either my heart does it's little extra beat thing, or I get a pain when I sneeze or just for no reason in my chest bone area, etc. There's…See More

I know I haven't been around for awhile, life got a little busy there for awhile. I am truly sorry if I caused anyone any worry. So a little update. I moved to a new state and life is happy. I have found a new doctor here and he has sent referrals to both a cardiologist and a cardio thoracic surgeon. Surgery to repair my aneurysm and leaky valve is in my future, we will find out when I see surgeon how near of a future it will be. Part of me hopes soon, living with the fear of the aneurysm…See More

6yrs.
Well today is my youngest daughter's sixth birthday, and we know what that means. It is also my six year anniversary of my dissection. Of course I just had to make that announcement and celebrate with my family here too. *hugs* to all of you.

ECHO today.
So I had my 6m ECHO today and doc says nothing has changed since my last echo. My enlarged aortic root/aneurysm is holding steady at 5.1 and my leak is still considered moderate. Even better news no more CT scans for me, doc feels due to my age that having an ECHO(now once a year) instead of being exposed to radiation once a year is good enough. He does say if the ECHO ever shows change or I start to develop any symptoms then of course a CT scan will be necessary.
Now let's…

Just a thought.
After joining this site and reading and posting here for I do believe well over a year now, I've noticed so many people state how much trouble they had finding support after their ADs. The support that is so very needed. Being able to calm your fears by talking with others that truly understand, the ability to ask "Hey is this normal" or "How do you..." Most of all knowing your not alone. But thanks to one man we have that place! A place where we can share our stories, a place we can vent our… Continue
