Can people with Aortic aneurysm work? What kind of work can they perform?

It is possible to work, but avoid heavy work and lifting

As long as there is no immediate risk of dissection and you have the tick of approval from your doctor, a person with an Aortic Aneurysm can work, as long as your work is not physically strenuous, especially where heavy lifting is involved.

Certain jobs are Too Physically demanding period , Others the stress and strain are very unhealthy for AD peeps I was a active career Firefighter I was retired "officially in 2010" There was NO way I could don 40 lbs of clothing and 50lbs of breathing apparatus and hand tools to just no way Before I did that I had been a dispatcher for a couple years sure your sitting in a room but Unless you have ever picked up a phone had a 32 year old adult woman screaming and Not understandable TO talk her into quieting down enough to begin to save her own infant BY explaining how to do CPR when she is screaming again.. nope I also Had a drivers career BUT i doubt any of you would want me driving some sort of truck when i could keel over any time and with MY PAD/PVD MY feet get numb I try to drive very little .. Being a cashier at some places would be fine but THey Might not allow you there if you cant Pick up items that are too heavy for an AD person.... Working in a Theatre venue as an Usher or cleaner (again you have limits though) a convenience clerk might be ok for some a Book store -Librarian for some if you have a cart

You can work. You may have weight limit restrictions.

You can absolutely work. To stay fit is good for your heart. Depending on qhwre your aneurism is and the size of it your dr will advise you on the leavel of work allowable.
