Thank you so much for this video. I know it took a lot of courage and effort. Remember: All you can do is all you can do, but all you can do is enough. ❤

Same stuff here. - I don't understand why they didn’t plan for the stent if found to be necessary. This results in two procedures, two anesthesia events, etc. I feel twice is unnecessary and really hard on the body. My venogram/stent was 7/17. - I don't understand why the Right side was elusive. Veins are veins. They're there. My doctor checked both iliacs, as well as the renal veins for Nutcracker Syndrome and the upper arms for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome. Come to find out, I have decent TSO on the Left arm, although my MTS stent seems to be improving it. - They say it's preferable to stent the Left iliac and give it 6 months to a year. I'm curious to see what ended up happening. Another night. -Man, you capture this Long Covid stuff well. Watching this, I realize just how much of my symptoms were/are LC, even though I also had classic MTS Left lower extremity involvement. My MTS doctor also diagnosed me with LC and MCAS. Thank you for this video!! I know how difficult this was!

Thank you for your comment! I'm about 3 months out from surgery, and although the surgery went well, I've been struggling with the recovery, mainly side effects from the blood thinner. I'm off it now, but still trying to get my body to settle. I was hoping to post an update a long time ago, but every time I've gone to record it, I get worn out before I even pull out the camera. Direct address videos require more focus than my vlogs, so they're a bit of challenge. Hopefully I'll have the energy to get the next one out soon. Thank you again for your comment, it's nice to hear from someone who has been though this!
