Hi all,
My graft is starting to fill up with calcium again. I've tried to find stuff out there about why this happens but can't find anything, I've heard of fistulas and grafts getting clotts, but calcium? mine does. My calcium always runs around 10 which is still normal well to my neph's protacall it is, well the hi side of normal so I'm wondering if this could be why. I'm wondering has any other people on this site had a fistula or graft get calcium billedup in it? My center describes it as grisil when canulating.
