I first went to Poland on the 13th Jan 2010 where I had balloon angioplasty on my left jugular,unfortunately after having no improvements from this I returned in March for a doppler wi...

Was it a severe narrowing that you had in your azygous? Is there any way they could have missed it if they'd been looking for it properly? I don't fancy paying another 480zl for an MRI! Do you know, should it have shown up on the MRV that they did? I would like to go the EHC too but feel I have pai...
