A little trip to the hospital

[CactusJack]

For some time I have been dealing with a lot of pain in my left calf, after many trips to the doctors and several test they discovered that I have a blocked artery in my leg just above my left knee.
Tomorrow morning I go in to the hospital to have angioplsty done along with the placement of a stent I should only be there over night if everthing goes as planned but you never know.
Seeing as that all my family knows I thought I would let my on line family here know as well.
As soon as I can I will let you all know how thing went..

Please keep us posted. I hope all goes well.

Thanks for letting us know.
Good luck with it all.

Am sure all will be fine; I had the same surgery in 2000, no ill effects at all. Of course got to watch fat & sugar intake (modify it-don't try & dump it altogether, you can still have Pizza and bacon, just not every week, "Splenda" is fine in coffee, and they now make a fat free 'Half & Half' for cereal, etc.)
Will light a candle for you in any case.

At least the kilt will allow easy access to the surgery site!

I'm glad they discovered the problem and know how to fix it.

Good luck
