Today we bring you the incredible story of Suzy Meyer-Page, 20 year Survivor of a Type A and eventual Type B Dissection. Suzy’s story is quite amazing considering she was misdiagnosed more than once! Suzy survived a Type A dissection and was not only misdiagnosed, but dismissed from the moment she was picked up by the ambulance. It is a frustrating story that is told too often. Once Suzy’s Type A dissection was eventually diagnosed, 20 years ago, she still had to endure comp
