Lol after everybody my name is Jeff back in January of 2023 a CT scan accidentally found my abdominal aorta aneurysm at 3.5 cm so check that the following January and it was also 3.5 cm move on to the next January 2025 and it now was 4.2 cm growth of seven millimeters in one year in June of 25 I started having severe pain in my hip and right side and down my leg radiating nine pain like a dog shooting on a bone and I went to the ER they did a CT scan and and now measures 4.9 cm which is the same growth in 6 months as it was the previous year therefore it is an a rapid growth. For some reason and it is squeezing on my spinal cord causing nerve encroachment to my legs and my hip and my upper rib cage and up to my armpit and shoulder has anybody else had any experience with this happening to them out there having a problem with finding a good surgeon and also a good hospital I know it's time for surgery I'm trying to get a trouser stent due to the fact that my aneurysm is in the why of my aorta. I think a prophylactic approach to this with a stent would be way better for my recovery time and longevity I'm 61 years old and no family record of having this issue any advice from anyone would be greatly appreciated or if anyone's experienced anything like this pain that I'm having it's a brutal pain there's no sleep at night there's no rest at all but of course they don't give you any pain meds anymore so give you a 7-Day bout and that's it and you're done for the year from what I've been told from my PCP so any input would be greatly appreciated thank you and have a great night
