next week i go back to hubbard for the third tim in 5 months. first time i had angio in sept.2010. worked great 75% better for 1 month then stenosed again. went back in dec. 2010. didnt work. didnt feel anything for a week, the 3 days felt great, then bad again. i go back del mar for stent feb. 18th. im sure i restenosed again. my theory is if your veins dont stay open, they are more elastic and can stenose worse as in my case. stent should do the trick. even though i'm having trouble i highly recommend hubbard and del mar. very good.
