Thank you David and Eric,, I am home from the 200 mi round trip to see the Surgeon. I don't see hima again for 6 months and then we discuss his going in thru my groin to put a stent in the lower end of that damn anneurysm. That's about the same as a Heart Cath. Sure would be better than being taken apart again. I have a weird looking scar on my left thigh from the last one and I hate to ask what they did there LOL Have a good day all.

Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April.
