Hi,
I had 2 stents implanted in both my legs at the crotch, as I had 75% and 90% (left leg) blocked. This was done
2 years ago. I do have a history of high cholesterol, which I'm being followed by a lipid specialist. She is very pleased with my count. I went for my follow up and the count was good, but I'm now having an issue with lower back pain which radiates to my hips and down both legs in back. She has recommended an MRI, as a radiograph of my back showed arthritis, as what I have a feeling she is not agreeing with. Could this be a sign of something more significant? re: more blockages or tumour?
