SHar--I thoroughly sympathize with you doctor/medical problems. I've got some too. Last week I had to have an ultrasound done on my carotid arteries in the neck and saw the doctor yesterday to find out the results. It turned into one of those bad news good news things. The ultrasound showed that my right carotid artery is not doing well, BUT since I'm not evincing any symptoms (difficulty in lifting my left arm or leg, numbness in the left hand/arm/leg that won't go away), he's recommending that we do nothing right now. There is a problem with surgical procedures to clean out the artery. With my history of lungs filling up with fluid suddenly, I'd only have a 50% chance of surviving an operation. The chances would be better for placing a stent in the artery. But the best is to do nothing unless absolutely necessary. I have to have another ultrasound in 6 months to see what's happened since now. In the meantime, he'll consult with my cardiologist on the chances that I could survive surgery, since all he knows is what I've told him. But since I've experienced no problems since last spring, he's hopeful that nothing will need to be done in the near future. So it's a case and wait and hope
