Thanks for the tip & good wishes, Ken; no, this'll be my first operation of any 
kind, which is why I've been a chicken & put it off for 6 months or so... ;-)

Good luck with yours!!!

  Again, thank you everyone for the good wishes.  My operation will be the 
later part of the week it sounds like, possibly as late as Friday.  Just 
waiting for the effects of the blood thinners to wear off.


  Mike, good luck on your procedure also.  Have you had this done previously?  
The most difficult part I think is laying perfectly flat during recovery if 
they enter through the groin.  If they enter through the wrist, recovery is a 
bit easier.

    Mike, 

    Hope that goes smoothly for you.  I have heard that stents make a great 
difference and recovery is fast.  Best wishes-

    Steve
