AFIB (has (possibly) Saved my life!
Yes - unbelievably AFIB ihas been a potential life saver as it uncovered a potentially life-threatening condition, this being a Dilated Aortic Root (which can develop into a thoracic
aneurysm
) This was found during a precautionary coronary angiogram prior to a cryoablation I had on 18th May performed

Hi new here, a little about us, my hubby Rob got diagnosed with a thoracic
aneurysm
on the heart root back in December 2015, and has been monitored ever since, but last year the regurgitation on the heart valve went from moderate to severe and he opted for surgery so he could get his quality of life

Convinced I'm dying
I went to the er yesterday thinking I had a brain
Aneurysm
, it was a migraine. Now today I've had chest pain. And leg pain, pain in the left side of my throat and my calves feel tight but aren't swollen. I am fearful to go to sleep because I'm afraid I won't wake up.

My uncle
Wondered if anyone can help me my uncle has an aortic
aneurysm
, top of the heart which hasn’t grown for 5 years. Along with valve issues. He has recently gone on waiting list for surgery. He’s getting a lot of symptoms of bring up phlegm and heavy legs. Wondered if anyone else has had it.

Second TEE procedure
I had the first one because tests showed that I had an interatrial septal
aneurysm
in my heart. My Cardiologist wanted to check if I had a hole in my heart. I was told I didn't have a hole after the TEE.

Miracle continues
I have an
aneurysm
, which grew so large it was pressing on my brain stem, and surgeons were reluctant to operate further as too risky. Amazingly a blood clot formed in front of it and blocked it off, shrinking the
aneurysm
in size at the same time.

Diagnosed 4 months ago with aortic

Abdominal Aorta Aneurysm

President Biden - Atrial Fibrillation
The most significant medical event in Biden's history, O'Connor wrote, was when Biden suffered a brain
aneurysm
in 1988. He was serving in the Senate at the time. During surgery, doctors found a second
aneurysm
that had not bled, which they also treated.

Covid vaccine
I have a atrial septum
aneurysm
and am worried that the vaccine might not t the right thing to have. The cardiologist told me the septum is extremely thin although didn’t give me any other details. I am very worried and confused. Has anyone had the vaccine with the same condition.

Medical Mystery, Hormones, ADHD meds?
We have only deduced certain things from the equation like epileptic seizure activity, cardio dysrhythmia,
aneurysm
, rheumatic issue, covid. The top contenders are ms, lyme, narcolepsy or stress/ anxiety pseudoseizures. I am in workup still.

Aortic aneurysm
I have had congenital heart problems since I was born (all fixed in childhood) but by chance whilst having a chest X-ray in March it was discovered I have a 4.7
aneurysm
on the arch of my aorta. I will need a bypass so that a stent can be fitted to fix this.

Brain tumour or csf leak or IIH
It burns inside my head too and I’m just convinced that even though I’ve had a CT it’s got to be a brain tumour or an unruptured
aneurysm
and the doctors don’t say anything to reassure me it’s not. I’ve only had the CT and then an mri of my pituitary gland

? If so how long did it take to feel normal and when were you able to go back to work?
