Guest guest Posted September 10, 2001 Report Share Posted September 10, 2001 Hi I will be out of town until the end of the week, so who ever needs info just let met know, i will be glad to help you out with what i know. I am going to continue to receive mail. The doctor that i am getting ready to go and see is Harrell. He is at UCSD Medical center-San Diego. He has been taking care of my stent since the beginning of this year. He does about 3 stents every week. It's nothing to him, since he does it so frequently. He does not have to cut me either. He goes in through my mouth with some type of bronchoscope-spelling? It has a camera on the end of it so he can see what he is doing on a screen. He does give me an anestetic. It only takes about 45 minutes for him to do this. He does it on an outpatient basis. If I have any complications he will admitt me into the hospital. So far all has been well. Okay i'll be quiet, bye ---- Original Message ----- From: Woods To: Rpolychondritis Sent: Monday, September 10, 2001 6:50 PM Subject: /stents!!!!!!! Hello , I have been looking for you girl.
