swelling down in regular size, light headed, feel faint taking iron. They should have ultra sounded me, don't you think? two ways to give your life for your country, military, or V.A. Hospital.

Glad you're ok now. What we need is universal health care.

Took a while to respond, kept looking at 'Mistress's avatar'


Didn't know about leg stents. Found this to help explain it: https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/news/media/releases/minimally_invasive_stents_show_some_advantage_over_bypass_in_opening_blocked_leg_arteries

Was the bleeding from the insertion site of the artery that was leaking?

I'm getting old enough that I think back on the few really good people I've met in my life. Glad to have the time with them. Hoping to call each of them some day, to thank them. Regrettably quite a few have died. So hope where they are they can read my thoughts.
