    I dissected in 2004. My dissection caused a heart attack and a false lumen, which caused reduced blood flow to my legs. Took forever to figure out why I couldn’t walk! I had zero blood flow. My feet were freezing! So, please don’t forget to test folks pulse in their ankles before letting them go home! And yes… worse pain EVER!
    I finally got stents in my groin at Stanford and could walk the very next day!
    After 12 hours surgery, and 6 on the heart and lung, I thank the good surgeons for adding 20 years to my life! (And counting!)

    Excellent talk. Anecdotes about historical people really enrich a presentation and help keep one’s interest. I am amazed that the pathology report on George II could be so technically sophisticated in the year 1760.

    I had an Aortic dissection in March of 2020. Went to the ER, I had severe pains in my upper chest. After two hours of testing, they sent me home they said there’s nothing wrong with me. I was back in 15 minutes. After two more hours of testing someone said he might be having a dissection. Bingo.

      wow! my best friend of 24 years just died last Monday from this. The ER didn't catch it and treated him for pain. He sat in the ER 13 hours; the dissection ruptured and killed him.

    I had an aortic dissection on 7th Dec 2020. Doctors advised against surgery as I have tears on both the ascending and descending arteries and they said the mortality rate was in the 80+% range if I did have surgery. I am currently on medications and will be so for the rest of my life. I spent 11days at Port of Spain General Hospital in Trinidad.

    Had a Aortic Dissection 1/18/2007. I will never forget that ripping sensation. I thought somebody literally stabbed me in my back. As I turned around. It put me on the ground. I was only 3 miles away from Fairfax Hospital in Virginia.

      Ok thanks. My dad is currently in the hospital with a Aortic dissection, but he is unable to get surgery due to other conditions. But they are saying that he may be able to heal by lowering his BP not doing so well yet
