does a large abdominal aneurysm of 7 cm cause sickness
Posted , 5 users are following.
B in Law diagnosed few months back large abdominal aneurysm, he has had bouts of extreme sickness, e.g after a peice of cake at 3.30pm he was violently sick bringing up his lunch etc. Nurse said it was due to the vein with the aneurysm, I cannot see that the digestive system could be affected, He is in a Nursing Home dementia, & the staff just seem to say anything to pacify concerns, anyone else had this kind of symptom.?

When an aneurysm gets large enough that in starts to press on internal organs near it, it can cause problems. It depends on where they are located as to what organs they press against causing different symptoms. They can cause hoarseness and shortness of breath if pressing against larynx or lungs. Also cause back and shoulder pain.. these are thoracic aneurysms. Stomach ones can cause abdominal pain and groin pain, not sure what else. Depending upon the size and location, nausea and or vomiting "could" be possible. I would consult additional doctors to get other opinions.. aneurysms are located in the aorta which is the largest artery in the body, it has veins coming off of it. Very sorry to hear of your b-n-labor medical issues but sounds like he has support in you. That's much needed and do a lot of research, you can never do too much!
Blessings..
