Title: Les Needs New Permacath
Post by: 2_DallasCowboys on October 12, 2007, 02:48:40 PM: Hi,

Well my poor hubby needs another permacath, this
one is not clearing well at all. I got so pissed, because
the darn thing is only about three months old.
He has now had two failed attempts at fistulas, the
last one the Dr did the vien mapping on. He is due to
have a graft put in first week of Nov- we have to wait as
our vascular Dr is in the hospital himself! His cover Dr will
replace the cath on Monday, please wish us luck and a few
prayers are always welcome

Anne and Les in NJ
