Procedures and Schedules...

[a_nord]

Vena-gram (clot-buster, roto rooter and stint placement)... This would be the first procedure.  It is scheduled for next Tuesday afternoon.  I have pre-op at 2:00 then the procedure when that's done.  I Then have a follow up appointment on the 9th at 3:00pm with the vascular surgeon.  That is when we will probably set the scheduling for the next

An interesting question came to my mind. Is it worse to pay a couple thousand to be told you are probably ok (i.e. passing a heart stress test) or to pay a couple thousand to actually have something "fixed"?

Since I have done and paid for both...

I go for the passing not the fixing. Less pain involved and a much quicker recovery time.
