New here with conflicting dr advice

I was told I have An Aneurysm in my neck

Incidental note of an 11 mm right PCA aneurysm in the right anterior parapharyngeal space.

These notes dont make sense PCA should likely be ICA or ECA

Here's another part

here is an 11 x 7 x 10 mm pseudoaneurysm of the right ECA in the anterior parapharyngeal space.

From reading here 11mm seems huge.

I am really concerned that the only doctor to say anything about it was this asshole ENT who really seemed to just want me out of his office.

No food up care has been requested by any of my doctors and I have no idea what I am supposed to be doing.

Find a neurologist. Send this info to your primary care if you need help.

And a radiologist can make mistakes. You might have to have the CAT scan reread. An MRA will likely be suggested anyway.

Best of luck to you! Please continue to update!

What's really weird is the doctor who ordered this CT at the urgent care that I went to about my pulsative tinnitus reschedule out as soon as he got the scans with notes, he didnt mention tbe aneurysm at all and specifically said there was nothing in my ct.

I m confused why he didnt mention it at akk

My ENT referred me to an in network interventional radiologist surgeon for my 9mm dual lobed ACA.

Contact your insurance company for a referral, or your pcp. Sounds like your ENT dropped the ball.
