@parrot53 I'm glad to hear you can still exercise. I had been using my treadmill each morning to get 1 Mile at a good clip (3.5 - 3.8 MPH) and that was such a helpful thing to keep me sane. My FMD was found last weekend --due to a massive headache---and I have it in my carotid arteries. I'm navigating getting to the specialists that can help look at this and so I've stopped it for now and started taking my baby aspirin. I am beginning to think I've had this for a while... I have been hearing my heart beat in my ears for a while and I've had weird sensations in my neck--a tightness under the jawline which I was attributing to wrinkles! Wishing you well!

see your vascular surgeon for guidance I have an appointment with a specialist in nyc in Aug in addition to local vascular surgeon My FMD is renal and iliac not carotid. I also guess have had a while as symptoms are blood pressure for me. Hopefully good news when you see your vascular doctor
