I actually joined this group 3 weeks ago because I was diagnosed with a 3.4 abdominal aortic aneurysm by a US, which is what most use for sizing and monitoring. The fear and anxiety I have experienced is something no body can explain unless they have been through it. I am going to tell you always get a second test if you don’t feel right. I asked for a MRA to get a baseline of what I was working with. Had the MRA yesterday and as of 11:00 today 5/4 I have a normal 1.7 suprarenal and a normal 1.5 infrarenal. The Doctor told me the MRA is 100% accurate Praise the lord I was misdiagnosed. I definitely don’t want my blessings to bring anyone down. There is a place in my heart already for everyone in this group and will pray for everyone fighting this awful diagnosis. Don’t be scared to be your own advocate!!

Thank you for giving me another option. I’m hoping the first one was wrong.
