A member asked:
I am a 67 female and i have a calcified splenic aneurysm 2.0cm stable since 2015. can blood tests show if it is leaking or what should i look for as symptoms i go for cta every 2 years?

Blood tests will not help assuming that they have tested for possible causes of the aneurysm, Most likely hardening of the arteries Stop smoking and moving to really good cholesterol lowering eating plan could help. Control BP. Symtoms: severe acute pain in area of spleen. Sudden pain and fainting. Pretty rare to rupture. Esp is stable for 2 years.
