Thank you all.

I had to go to the doctor again today for my weekly blood draw. They watch my clotting factor to make sure I don't get blood clots. I'm doing very well, TG, considering..

I just read the first procedure report and found out I had so many blockages, not just the left jugular.

I had balloon angioplasty in about 8 major places not seen on the Doppler Ultrasound, only during the dye infusion. No flow was seen on left, that I knew, but the other stenosed veins were in so many places it was unreal.

Even my chest Azygous had closure at the top curve (Azygous is shaped like a candy cane). No wonder the procedure took so long. Besides using different size catheter - balloons, my Dr had to use different style balloons.

I remember watching him thread them in and out of the opening, like a plumber. LOL Amazing.

So I just have to rest and heal ALL of these places that were zapped. I can do that.

I hope to find more improvements over time. I'll let you all know.

Happy New Year 2011 to all of you.
