Brain AVM & atherosclerotic disease

Hello, My name is Ferrin.
Female Age 32 -I have a known Brain AVM, and I did gamma knife a year ago.
I Recently had an US for abdominal Pulse. Found out there is no Aneurysm but that i do have atherosclerotic disease. No doctor told me the results i found it in my health portal.
What does this MEAN:(?

Hi Ferrin and welcome. I had gamma knife for my AVM back in 2016. I don’t know anything about atherosclerotic disease, and Dr. google is all over the may, like usual! A lot of info but I would certainly be requesting a follow up, or at least a discussion with your primary care provider. It would be nice to know a lot more info, wether it is monitor or something further medically. It seems weird there was no follow up by anyone. I know there is a lot of stress on our health care system in Canada right now but I would think follow up by the care provider that did the referral for US would be basic accepted practice. Take Care, John.
