another big sigh.. Surgeon said I will need surgery but my blockages are severe and he suspects its also in my aortic and he might need to do open surgery. Another test to find out for sure but by listening to my pulses and looking at my legs he seems to think its pretty bad. He cant do it in Madison either. I will need to go to one of the bigger hospitals in Louisville.

What is the next test?

:hugs The guys could have a home health aide (or somebody) stay with them. Sounds like there really isn't a choice. If you don't do it... I don't want to think about that.

Is he worried about blockage there or aneurysm?

Im ok with them going in a vein and using stents that would be a one day thing or so but if they have to open me up then Im screwed. Bad as the hip surgery.

If they don't fix the problem you are screwed. Not going to get better by itself.
