my husband has a blockage in his groin area and he has trouble walking. Our doctor has prescribe medication and wants him to do walking therapy before inserting a stent. He has a test scheduled to find how to the degree of the blockage. One problem is that the medication makes him dizzy and he is already having that problem.
