Not the same issue but I am currently a Boom Operator and due to family history and my father passing away suddenly due to an Ascending Aorta aneurysm rupturing. My grandfather's on both sides also died from this. I was sent in for an echo to get checked and I was found to have mild dilation of the ascending aorta of 3.9cm. The flight doctor is sending me to see a cardiologist, and will be taking whatever they recommend for restrictions if any.
while I know that the dilation is mild, I am at a higher risk due to family history. Am I looking at possibly being removed from flying status over this?
