I was told to come back in 6 moths for Doppler imaging. I was given med for cholesterol and advised to take 1 aspirin every day. When I asked what should I expect or look for unti this is resolved, he answered, "Just be aware".......OMG, aware of what?
So I will have all my records and scans sent to Mayo to see if they can help. I have read that they will do something because there is a pretty good chance of getting a blood clot in small intestine if arteries remain blocked.
I'll keep you updated as I look for a solution.

Yes, Please keep us updated. I hope you find some help, in the meantime if you have pain that worsens, or any other symptoms that develop please do not hesitate to go to the ER. I know we question our symptoms often and go back and forth if we should be seen, but rather error on the side of caution when it comes to any kind of ischemia! Thinking of you!
