An unexpected complication has occurred in my situation.

I developed peripheral artery disease which led to a blocked femoral artery. To correct that, I had an angioplasty and a stent about two years ago. Subsequently, I was diagnosed with PV. Recently, the stent found to be occluded and will need to be replaced very soon. The occlusion is most likely due to the excess RB cells and platelets.
