    As some of you know about my aneurysm(leg area) last year - well after much persuasion and basically getting my arse thrown into a vehicle I am going for my check up. I was supposed to go in Jan(oops). Undergoing 3 surgeries and being told I am going to die left and right scared me of going back. I called the Dr in Jan telling him that I was going to pass on the appointment - my exact words were "I don't want to know when I am going to die, I would rather just die with out that knowledge, thanks anyway".

    I didn't make the appointment and I am going against my will....lol - they might have to drag me in.

    Wish me luck! **crosses fingers**

    Remember, always get a 2nd or third opinion. (if you hear something you don't like)

    Take care,

    You should go and sort out the problem, they usually put in a graft in the affected area to strengthen the artery walls. It doesn't sound like major surgery to me. Fortunately it is not in the brain.

    Well, I know a little more about the artery than the average person. I had my major surgery Oct of last year which lasted almost 7 hours. Long story short - I had a rare type of case. It was called a P5 which meant my artery wrapped around my bone, causing me to slow down. I had it checked and the 1st doctor created a aneurysm and a hole near my ankle area. He said the aneurysm would go away. Yeah, that's when I got my 2nd opinion. Anyway, my Doctor appointment went ok. My leg will never be normal, I have to accept the fact my mind wants to do more then my body will allow me. Now have to get that heart murmur they keep telling me I have checked out. Can't one take a rest from Doctors? Brookie

    Hi Brooke. You have to put all your trust with the doctors love, they only want the best for you.

    You're only 26, so take all the check-ups and help offered to you.

    Hope you have a LONG and happy life.
