I am very sorry to hear you are going through this. My celiac aneurysm is 1.5 cm and it was discovered 2 years ago after I had a splenic infarction. The clot originated from the celiac aneurism. I am told this is unusual to have an infarction from a CA this size. I had been losing weight, nauseated, had pain in my back and stomach area and felt severe generalized malaise. I have always been in good health. Now they follow me once year and I am fortunate to be near excellent medical care. Now I don't have any symptoms (knock on wood) and I am hoping the size doesn't vary. This group has been very helpful to me to know I am not alone out there. This can be scary and lonely. I hope you find a good doctor. I go to a vascular surgeon and have an excellent internist that hears me. It is important to find someone who takes your symptoms seriously. Please keep us posted on how you are doing.
I'm sorry this has happened to you, I also have a CA @1.6 but show not symptons at this point.. Is it possible for you to go out of state for a dr.. maybe a relative or friend somewhere..
