i was drawn in, even thought..hmm have they "seen the light?" .. right up to the very last line.. "Veins change in size and shape with breathing and going from lying to standing, potentially dislodging a venous stent. " ...then on to the FAQ's to really fuel the fear and sound the 2 year warning... sigh..

it's like one doctor started the article and anoTher finished iT..
