@tvickey Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect and thank you for telling your story of celiac artery aneurysm. That explanation by your doctor comparing the dissection to wallpaper is the best I have heard! Did you have surgery then?
I had MALS - median arcuate ligament syndrome- the celiac artery was compressed by a ligament. I’m sure the symptoms are similar. Do you still have your spleen?

No surgery. Was on meds for 6 months and follow up. Second visit showed a smaller dissection. No idea how that happened.

My doc is awesome. I switched health insurance, he was out of network. I was prepared to pay for my annual follow up visit out of pocket (he is good and expensive).

HE WAIVED HIS FEE!
