I find it interesting that gut/digestive issues seem to be common among some of us with celiac aneurysms. Yet it doesn’t seem to be recognized as associated. I hope it will help the medical team to investigate that. I am now waiting two years fir my next MRI. Mine is 1.3
How do we know if it is growing?

Yes! So many have reported digestive issues but linkage between GI issues and CAA doesn't seem to be widely accepted in the medical community. The rarity of this disorder is probably why the connection isn't made but this group alone provides empirical evidence worthy of investigation. I think CT scans is the only way to know if it is growing.
