As some of you know, I have not been feeling well for the last few months. Numb foot, pain and now a surgery that won't heal. Today they finally figured out what it is. I have a 100% blockage of my center femoral artery in my right leg, from my hip to my knee. The whole thing is blocked! Friday morning I am having a stent put in at the Arizona Heart hospital. I am so glad that I will have my life back. It's outpatient, I can't drive for 2 days and I'll be back to work Monday, barring any unforeseen complications. I just wanted you all to know.... I'll try to post up Friday night if I'm not still zonked out. I'm so grateful that it's nothing worse.......But I don't understand why just that artery is blocked. The others are clear......

Thanks Rob.
I have a ride. They said I would be able to care for myself at home, just not drive due to the location of the incision. I can;t push on the gas.....Ir's a really easy and non invasive surgery. They said I could go to work on Monday.

Hi Chari,
Best wishes and listen to the doctor. Heal fast and get back to the beach as quick as you can.
After another year of surgeries the beach was my best medicine!
