graftogram friday

« on: November 07, 2011, 05:50:21 PM »

I went to my anual checkup with my surgeon and he did a dopler flow test and found my graft does have some blockages so on Friday he's doing a well in my case it would be a graftogram so hopefully he'll get those opened up and every thing will be good again. I like how this surgeon does his own fistulagrams rather then IV because I don't have good luck with IV when they do them.
