: First, you are entitled to worry about any condition you desire, but you do not have an aortic aneurysm. Since your anxiety appears to be a substantial problem, why not tackle it NOW, and improve your future quality of life? Find a Cognitive-behavioral therapist and commence counseling. Your coping will improve immensely.
