Im am a triple AAA survivor,mine ruptured at the gym I suffered a stroke during surgery,I woke up 2wks later,After 3months in the hospital,all I can say is that i am blessed, to have great doctor's and physical therapist that got me though alot,to where im able to regain feeling on my left side again.
So happy you pulled through 👍
How are u now
holy shit, im so scared i have one. but hearing ur story brought tears to my eyes for you. you’re sooo so brave and strong keep it up.
I'm glad to hear that your doing okay now 😊
I had an abdominal aorta anurism that busted. I had to have 2 surgeries the drs. Told me I was a miracle.
How are u now?
You're very lucky 🙂
Woah that’s crazy i’m glad you’re alive.. what did it feel like and what happened when it burst? and how long did it last before you went to the hospital? I don’t want to be right but i think that when i ruptured my spleen it was so severe that they couldn’t further diagnosis any of my other internal injuries (aortic injury.. or more) in the time i was rushed into surgery and that was the core issue of everyone’s attention but as a miracle my red blood cell count stabilized and they didn’t do any more scans afterwards to observe my organs. i have strange symptoms and plan to get it looked at obviously but i’m so scared to swallow that if it’s what’s going on, i just don’t feel ready or strong enough. hope you’re doing well though lol :)
I think I have one but I’m not sure how someone who’s confirmed to have it knows what it feels lime
Had mine repaired 4 years ago when it got to just under 6. Got lucky when it showed up on a ct scan for kidney stones. I was in having it repaired within weeks of them finding it. I was only in my 50's. Everything went great. Spent 5 days in ICU and went home on the 6th day. It took about 12 weeks to fully recover.
My mom had an abdominal aortic aneurysm that they found while doing another surgery on her abdomen and had she not been under surgery she could’ve easily died because she had no idea she had it and it was getting ready to rupture they caught it just in time thank God for the other surgery
I work for a NAAASP and this is honestly the best video I've seen on UA-cam on AAAs. All info correct and clearly presented. Brilliant work 👍
I've had a aortic aneurysm and ime only 17 but it's only 4.3 so yk I'll live my life till my fullest but I can't get it removed cuz of other medical problems. I can assure you that this guy's info is to point and it's the most accurate video on UA-cam in my opinion. Keep doing ur stuff bro 😄
How did you understand it bro?
@@KoPis8393 for real.. damn dude i was so ignorant when it came to my health at that age and now i'm suffering from the repercussions g
Just started Ultrasound Technology program and your videos are awesome! Thank you.
My brother has just had the operation so I am swotting up on this. Handy info - Thanks.
These videos are proving very useful for my AKT revision - saving me from death by passmedicine ... zzzzz....
Thank you!
Awesome, again !
Considering things like Driving, if the patient is an HGV driver ... so much to learn.
Prepping for a UK exam, I have been watching your bite sized but highly invaluable videos. Helps a lot, thank you!
Very helpful, thanks. As a med student, I love your stuff
Thank you so much for all your videos!
I’m a medical professional myself since since the late 1980is.
Love the way you present all aspects about a topic, very good and helpful informations.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Great to hear, thanks!
Just had mine done at 6.4,Thank you medical staff.
Did you have open or endvasular
@@donnaberscht5320 endvasular
Excellent as always!!
Thanks for the info just experienced this with my mother.
amazing video. thank you sir
This video is great!!!😁
Great video!
Excellent❤❤
This was very informative, as I have a 4.0 AAA. Just saw my doctor yesterday, and he feels I am stable. It is still scary to know you have a AAA
Last year I was told I had a 3.05, this year he told me I had 1) 3.50, 1) at 4.06 & 1) at 5.52 ??? in one year ??? ST SCAN in three weeks.
Failed to mention I have had Cardiomyopathy for 30 years, 3 lower bypass surgery including one lateral, one stint to the widowmaker, I guess it's just another surgery soon ??
Best explanation
All of your videos are great.
Thank you!
@@ZeroToFinals welcome 🤗
Excellent 👏
My gran died ages 76 in 1989 she was on a medical trolley awaiting assessment?
Very surprised when we were advised.
Very helpful. Thank you🙏
Glad it was helpful!
Not a medical student, but very interesting and explained well!
Wonderful
If the aneurysm is 3-4cm ...why not repair it right then... what u watching it for.
Hi Brittany. At that size the aneurysm is considered to be "low risk" in the short term. Elective surgery for this can be tough going, so you'd rather save that until it's necessary rather than early when there's no imminent danger
Someone could have an aneurysm of, for example, 3.4cm, and 10 years later it will only have grown to 4cm. How quickly they grow is really luck of the draw
Thank you
Thank you sir
I had one done 5 / 2017 and I have a 16 inch scar to prove it ! -- Still here @ 74 yesterday. -- Was 67.5 when done. - - - Appears now to have come back revealed 6 months ago @ 5.6 requiring a closer look to assess another potential repair. Contrast for detail should allow for a good look and hopefully lead to a repair from the inside. I have heard it said that it can be repaired inside the artery 90+ % of the time. -- That's the good news - but - the bad news comes from the contrast putting my kidneys at further risk from the 50% function left from the previous surgery ! -?- An apparent necessary evil ?!?
Thank you
❤
How long does the graft last?
This is nice
I’m just viewing this because my lil big bro passed away not too long ago due to his aortic aneurysm has ruptured…
What was his symptoms, I’m scared this is happening to me
@@alisiaadams6359 he had no symptoms I'm sure it was due to heavy lifting at our work place cos they had to set up these 75 inch flat screen TV 200 in total which was very heavy and he was a big guy
@@alisiaadams6359 he also said he had a very sharp pain in his chest the day before he passed away
@@JayeVee I’m so sorry for your loss, I’m going to urgent care today to figure this out 🤦🏽♀️
@@alisiaadams6359 yes please do and I hope you're doing fine.
I'm a nurse and I hada patient pass away this past week.he was dealing with leg ischemia. The vascular dr signed off and said it was his leg causing the ischemia. On day shift after I went home he died suddenly. Is this the vascular dr fault? Should they have known to investigate above the leg? I looked in my nursing notes book and said leg ischemia is a sign of a triple a but that was not mentioned in your video.
Cheers, Tom ❤️
😄
I wonder if this only affects smokers or if ppl on cholesterol lowering drugs might have a higher probability of this condition? Are patients deficient in vitamin k or given supplements like k2 or coenzyme q10 to repair the integrity of the artery? What is the typical treatment for this condition aside from smoking secession?
you’re asking all the right questions, i appreciate that.
US here 73 yo hubby just found out he has an AAA (small) he had no risk factors had blood in urine so had an abdominal scan where they found it ruling out cancer
This video states ALL UK men are routinely screened for AAA after age 65
Wish we lived in the UK … our Medicare won’t even screen for it unless something else is going on and it’s found accidentally
Kudos to UK !!
If there are Marfan or EDS, the dilation is reduced because of there genetic connective tissue disorder, which should been added, but other that good
I have Marfan Syndrome. Experienced the absolute worst shooting pain in my back that came around to my lower abdomen. Had CT scan and that's how my AAA was found. Currently controlling growth with several hypertension medications.
Really like your video ❤️
Thank you so much!!
Could you please do a video on Bulimia Nervosa? Thank you
Will add to the list 😊 might be quite a while though, it's a long list!
@@ZeroToFinals Im sure it is lolll
Thank u
😄
I have pulsing under my left ripcage often and I’m worried also have nausea and stomach sickness after meals for almost two months and esophagus pain was diagnosed with gerd , indigestion I take itopride meds to help with eating .tests done : hbylori negative, celiac negative, blood urine says normal , stool says indigestion, stomach scan says gastritis and the scan was for the stomach .help please I’m worried
..are you okay? 🥺
Go get an ultrasound check it don't wait a sign of an aneurysm is heart beat in abdomen
No need to worried you have your stomach scan and it says gas.❤❤❤❤
@@Sunflowers_and_sunshine if by that you meant echo scan on aorta i did and was normal thankfully
I had pulse just below my left rib cage yesterday for about 10 minutes could be AAA
Thanks, Tom.
😄
I read somewhere, or watched a UA-cam video that in the event of a rupture of the aorta that a balloon catheter can be fed up via a femoral vein to occlude the aorta. Is this a procedure possible in the emergency setting in UK?
The reason mortality is so high is that when it ruptures you bleed out internally very rapidly. So there is a chance someone can be saved but more often than not they just aren't getting into hospital/surgery in time.
wow!
What makes it suddenly burst? 🤔
When you say scan, US or CT-SCAN?
U/S in the first instance
Does it feel like a golfball ? . Leg cramp ?.
My aunt was 73 when she died of an AAA. It burst, and she died of cardiac arrest in the emergency room.
💗
Um, terrifying.
I have a lump that looks like this, and pain.
Well, hoping i dont just drop dead.
how you doing?
♥♥♥
Ah yes,the triple A, my biggest fear
i had pulsating just below my left rib yesterday for about 10 mins not hadnit again but could be AAA
Most people die here because of the er are so over crowded and the trauma systems are now staged by inexperienced triage techs who don’t know what to look for , I know several who have died from triple a because of this stupid triage system here now
YES this.
thank you for saying something
🤑✅🤡
Thank you
😄
