Abdominal Aortic Aneurism

Want to learn more about it?

Information on Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

This is what my brother died of 22 years ago. My physician just had an ultrasound done on me due to his concern that I may have one. I haven't heard back from him yet.

'AAA' is a catastrophic medical emergency. Apparently, if you don't have it IN the emergency room of the hospital you don't survive, and even then it's iffy. They say you bleed out in about 2 minutes.

God's rest, big brother.
