"If you feel a warm rosy, wave wash over you unexpectedly tonight, don't panic, it's just me sending you a massive amount of positive thoughts."
Either that or it'll be the discovery that one of te cats has peed in my slippers . . .
"I've a friend who went through that, and although the initial recovery was not pleasant, once he got through it he reported feeling better than he had in many years."
Thanks for the good wishes! I'm told that stenting around the heart can be pretty uncomfortable, but these stents are to go into the legs (one artery apiece) and a renal artery, and I'm told recovery is really next to nothing to worry about. If they decide to stent rather than ream (rather than do nothing to) the carotid arteries, I imagine I'll be less fuckin' suave about the whole thing.
I'm glad to hear your friend's feeling better! Give him my regards/accolades.
