Hi @perkman66,

May I ask how often your doctor orders tests to monitor the aneurysm? Did you have any symptoms?

The UCLA vascular surgeon said every year or two. My CAA was discovered in 2014 and I had it checked again in 2016 and plan another CT scan in a couple of months. It was 1.4 cm in size both times. I wasn’t given any restrictions so it is life as usual. I do have some moderately severe GI issues about 6 months ago that lasted for a few mo this but much improved now. I was told that it was probably unrelated.

I was diagnosed several months ago. Another CT scan scheduled for Jan. I have no symptoms.
