Vein Bypass Surgury Due To P.a.d.
UpdatedI am currently scheduled for a vein bypass surgury in my lower left leg due to P.A.D. I was wondering if anyone as has this surgury performed, and what the out come was. It seems kind of scary to me, but I was told that it was only alturnative that I have if I want to get rid of the pain in my leg a toes which is very very painful, not to mention uncomfortable. I was prescribed Vicodine 5/500 and Percocet 5/325 and they did not stop the discomfort or the pain. I am sick and tried of taking these Meds and looking forward to this surgury. But if it does not work like it is suppose to, which I am told is a possiblity. I would rather take the Meds. instead of being cut on. Has anyone had this surgury done? Please Respond.

I haven't had the surgery, but I know several people who did, very successfully, the risk of complications is actually very low.
Here's the link to a good article with more information:
