Update on G

G just phoned. The results on the neck (carotid artery) for the left is not good.
Very blocked (didn't say how much)

They will talk to the vascular surgeon about doing something, which is what we
knew needed to be done, it's just that (in our opinion) the VA was waiting see
if G would die first...lol.

As we already knew, because of this blockage G is very high risk for another stroke,
which is why his blood needs to be thin.

They will also do vein mapping on his right arm, so see about a fistula. This is his
last site for a possible fistula, so fingers crossed.

No mention of the other thing in the stomach...guess we will find out more tomorrow.
At least we feel he is in the right place to get these things done.


he is B
