5th Stent Out and the 6th “Long Term” Stent is In
I had my latest procedure to swap out stents on Tuesday and everything went great. It was the best procedure so far from both the doctor’s and my prospective. I was eating that night and have literally had no pain.
This new stent is slated to be left in for 4-6 months as opposed to the 6 months of the previous stents. I will get a checkup in 6-8 weeks just to make sure everything is looking alright. If everything does look good we will leave it in for a couple of more months. We are still looking into the non-invasive surgery that may eliminate my need for stents. It would be really nice to have that and be done with all of this. Also, I got the results back from my biopsies and everything looks good which is just more good news.
I am really thankful that everything went so smooth this time around.
