@brihug - it seems like the watch and wait approach is really tough for a lot of Mayo Clinic Connect members. I think most patients would rather be doing something proactive to ensure that a carotid artery blockage (or any other medical issue identified) is under control.
@tskeane - did you find something that could be done for you 100% blocked carotid artery?
@heidemarie - how are you doing?
Tagging @starfirey2k to see how they are doing with the watch and wait after a blockage was discovered. @davej @predictable @mick2 @jakedduck1 also may have some thoughts to share on waiting till a doctor says it's time to do something.
