My SMAS went overlooked for years. Even though I had great insurance and every test available. Both medical and holistic. The CT scan was when they found my collapsed intestine and diagnosed SMAS during emergency surgery. My lower intestine was found to have atrophied due to years with lack of blood flow.

I was diagnosed with Superior Mesenteric Artery syndrome after receiving a CT scan. After being diagnosed I've seen multiple different GI doctors, but now I am currently seeing a neurogastroenterologist. Other useful testing are scopes and motility testing.
