Going for my 8th venoplasty

Post by anamishguy »

I have not been on this forum for a long time. My question is why would my jugulars keep restenosing? I have an appointment this next Thursday April 1st 2021 for my 8th venoplasty on my jugulars. This is my 4th doctor and will be the 3rd time with him. Does anyone have any wisdom for me?
Thanks,
Jim

That sounds like a good question for Dr. Sclafani. Have you tried contacting him?

Dr. Sclafani last posted to the forums in June 2019. He gives his email address in the following post.

viewtopic.php?p=257957#p257957

At that time, he was working with a clinic in Poland. I don't know what his current status is.

Do you mind saying who is doing your 8th venoplasty, and in the past?

Have they helped? My wife had 3 several years ago, first helped noticeably for about 4 months, the other 2 didn't help. Possibly restenosis is a side effect of MS?

I'm interested in who is performing the procedure too. Thanks!
