Ok so as I live far from the two places in Canada that do the test I have to just go by the facts. Fact is I walked so steady and my balance was so good I went caneless to a few places, the procedure works and it was amazing! The balance lasted for a few weeks...now it is so bad again. Back to falling lots! The fatigue was so much better...but is sneaking back! My 'test' was having a shower and brushing my teeth before needing a 'rest'. Most days I now need the rest before the teeth get cleaned! So as my husband says there is obviousely restenosis and if the extreme shakiness or use of my right hand leaves I will just have to have it again! I had no test the first time...so feel justified in knowing myself to know there is a problem. I will tell no one as this town was so amazing with fundraising...but for the second go around I would not want anyone to feel they had to do that! I want to go back to NY...but will it just happen again? Maybe I should think of Mexico with their new 'stentless stent' I am so confused and bottom line scared again! Then there is all the 'did I do something to make this fail?' I am still so thankful for the use of my right hand....but just trying to wrap my head around the future?
