Hi @Moltroub & @FinWhaleFan,

It’s been a few weeks since my 2nd endovascular stent insertion. A bit fatigued & occasional light pressure headaches, but unlike the 1st stent, this recovery has been smoother. Next MRA in Nov :crossed_fingers:. Thanks for your support & stress reduction tips. :folded_hands::blush:

Hurray!!

What wonderful news to wake up this morning! So happy to hear that recovery has been easier on you this go-around, and that you have nexperienced minimal impacts.

Keep up those good vibrations!

We were watching Reacher and one of the costars in the episode had claustrophobia issue when they were hitching a ride in the luggage section of a bus. Reacher had the detective start with controlled breathing, then do math (multiplication), she got a bit peeved about him throwing out a long division problem. Of course I immediately thought what a great way to stop a panic attack if you have someone to throw out the problems.
