I was involved in a motoring accident in December 2006, I noticed that night extensive back and yellow bruising below my ribs , just at the point where the seat belt rested and tightened during the accident.
In February 2010 when in bed I felt a pulsating in the area where the bruising had shown. I visited my GP and asked him to look at the site, he told me that it was a AAA, and sent a fax message to my local hospital. I was taken in for tests and soon after for my EVAR.
I am baffled by the fact that I had been to the Cardiac unit and had a doppler scan to see how my heart was functioning, Nothing was said on that occasion or at another time when I had an angiogramme.
Are there many known cases of such injuries leading to undiagnosed conditions registered. I would be grateful for any information in this regard.
