Personally, if you can go to Mayo in Jacksonville and have a consultation with Dr. Sabrina Phillips with a CT scan with contrast, it would help answer the question on size etc. She is a congenital specialist and will use a team approach to evaluate your results etc.

I tried to get an appointment at Mayo in Jacksonville and they told me they are booked solid and to go somewhere else. I am devastated because I have been a patient there since 2010 and was diagnosed there with AAA. I live in Pensacola Florida 6 hrs drive from the clinic and have been driving there for many other things since my AAA diagnosis. The department of Cardiology here has been following me and because my aneurysm has gotten bigger they wanted me to go back. But since I haven’t been there in the last 3 yrs they qualify me as a new patient and won’t give me an appointment. They said to go to another center. I even had brain surgery there! I feel betrayed
