Magoo, SandyK, Katie41 Thanks, ladies! Yeah, I will hang in there! Now I just have a better idea of what I will get back to. In the meantime, I am going to try to spend more time in the pool building muscle, in preparation.

I am not being charged the same amount as the first full procedure.

Thanks, guys. Yeah, I probably should have pushed for a stent on the left side too, but who knows...at least this time it won't be 25- C! Brynn

I wanted to suggest that for everyone looking to travel for your treatment, that you get enrolled with a credit card that builds air miles and use that themn toward your airline tickets.

So, I had my surgery on January 21st. At that time, I had angioplasty with a stent placed into my right jugular and had the angioplasty only on my left. I saw tremendous improvements with no fatigue, improved balance, warm hands and feet, a stronger voice, better breathing, no more sore neck and my ...

Hi PCakes, you might want to read those this similar thread that I started about a month ago. http://www.thisisms.com/ftopict-9657-.html It is really fascinating how much we all share. Bye, Brynn

Hi Nigel, are you asking me whether I felt good enough to have gone home on Sunday rather than Monday?...so three days following surgery rather than four? For me, the answer would be yes, but I certainly can't speak for you, of course. My naturopath doctor had me taking ARNICA for several days befor...

Hi Cervin, that is wonderful news! I had my procedure on a Thursday and flew home on the following Monday. I read about one lady who had trouble getting her groin wound to heal so she ended up staying several more days than me, but I think that is an exception. My wound was only the size of a pencil...

Ditto, Rhonda. That is just what I needed to hear, since I have had all of those same worries! I will email that report you wanted this evening. Thanks!! Brynn

02/27/2010 Boy, time flies! I am still feeling good. This is largely a copy of my Tracking thread update. http://www.thisisms.com/ftopicp-91553.html#91553 My physical therapy is productive, but rebuilding will be a long process. I am so anxious to get stronger, that I get impatient with that at time...

Hi Rhonda, yoour anemia is interesting.....I think that Erika is dealing with that right now, too. What type of iron supplements are you taking? I will keep that in mind if a become fatigued...I hope not because the last time I took iron supplements it gave me bad gas!! :( Today, I have had my stron...

Great news, Fiddler! Now you can do a countdown on your calendar like an Advent calendar! The time will fly by, too! Brynn

Magoo, wonderful news! I had been thinking about you this week. I will be curious how your testing plays out. Good luck! Brynn

Thanks, Cah! I am always so impressed by how tricky this site is. I will do all that from now on! Take care, Brynn
