Final MRA

It feels like forever ago that I met with vascular surgeon. Slow-moving journey; however, now that winter break is right around the corner, I am finally starting to see things move along.

My doctor reviewed my previous MRI and while he could see what was going on with my popliteal artery, he wants a clearer scan. He wants to see where my popliteal artery runs, either behind my muscle or through it; also making him wonder if surgery would be to move the artery or the muscle – tricky situation.

I am having my final MRA on December 14th at 9 AM. After the MRA results, I am hoping he will have a better understanding of what to do for surgery.

Finger’s crossed that they will only have to move the muscle and not touch the artery.
