Hello,
Thanks for the concern. According to history you had nine bypass surgeries and you loose weight after surgery. Now you have 2 more aneurysm in heart and i think you are advised for surgery.
You have lost almost 90lb weight after surgery. After heart surgery weight gain decreases the recovery as work load on heart increases. So wieght should not be gained too much.
But you have lost weight and for surgery please immediately consult your cardiologist for further assistance.
Take care
