Like I said, I have 4.5cm but I also have bicuspid valve which cause the aneurysm to begin with. Just don’t know how long it took to get to 4.5cm. Next scan is in June 2024 so we will see.
I saw and read studies where this can not grow at all and for some it grows 0.1mm a year and for some it grows 0.8mm a year!!
So most importantly, I am looking forward to see how much mine will grow with bicuspid valve if I maintain good cholesterol and maintain good BP.
Good luck.

Good that you are on top of it. Mine started at 4.1. I never had one. Same with the aneurysm in my brain. 4.8. Best of luck to you.
