PAD - traditional treatment is Bi-Pass

Under some circumstances, stints may be an alternative.

If this is appropriate, the process involves using a cath, similar to those done in relation to heart problems.

I had two stents place already and I have one doctor say have the by-pass,and one says not to have it. My thing is

it has to be another way besides a by- pass surgery for this. I can't trust the doctors I have they are all in it for the money.

Mayo clinic says they can help determine what is the best thing to do, so I just hope they are as good as I have heard.

If surgery is the only option I have then I will use Mayo Clinic to do the surgery but hoping there is another way. At 53 they

say I am to young to have this and the surgery last about 4-5 years then something else has to be done. Just don't know

TMOE, I live in the upper midwest and EVERYONE with a serious condition wants to go to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. We used to live 30 miles from it and it was a source of some amusement the number of corporate and foreign jets that were parked at the Rochester airport at any given time.
