...I have been diagnosed with not only a worsening case of arrhythmia, but also as of this past Monday, a 42mm thoracic aortic aneurysm.

And just to make things even more exciting, this morning at work I set fire to a $250k machine tool we were prepping for delivery to a customer.

This sucks.

Thanks.

42mm is under their "mandatory surgery" threshold of 50mm, and yes I've had a second opinion from a different hospital network. Both doctors are in the "keep an eye on it" phase; I go back to the first cardiologist in about 3 weeks for next steps.
