@pagekt56 - wondering how things are going for you? I'm also curious about what your doctor suggested for the carotid stenosis?

@lisalucier I went to a new neurologist who ordered a new study and found that my stenosis is normal and not 50%. The old neurologist insisted on reading his and always came back with 50% and it was getting worse after the second test so he prescribed plavix. After going to the new doctor and cardiologist they said it was not 50% (and it was normal) so I was able to go off of plavix. Good thing I got a second and third opinion.
