I had several test done last week and it was on my heart and checking out the circulation in my legs because I have had blood clots in the past and had to have stents placed behind my heart and in the Aorta also. Well I went to my Doctor on Wednesday and he said that when they checked the circulation in my legs that I have blockage in both legs and it's above the knees and that I will have to have surgery. He said that they would be calling me to schedule the surgery. He said they would do the angiogram and see what it looks like and if they can repair it right then that they would go ahead and do that. But he said that it would be 2 surgeries because he can't do both legs at the same time. Well I have been having a bad hurting in my legs and at night I would sit and rub my legs and never ever thought that it would be blockage there. I just hope that they can get the surgery set up and get it done so I won't have to sit and worry about it. Has anyone else had this surgery done before and how well do you do after the surgery and did it take long for your recovery?

Thanks Alot,
Jan
