My 92 yr old dad had angioplasty this morn so I went to see him
afterwards. Mom and several sisters described what took place. He
had two arteries 98% clogged. I have for years wished they could
remove the stuff clogging the arteries in addition to using the
stent. My mom and sibs told me that they actually did this. I was
surprised and said I thought this could not be done due to the danger
of the "debris" causing a stroke. Apparently, the device whirls at
very high rpm and cuts it into such tiny pieces it causes no problem.
Doc said this could not be done 5 yrs ago. So, my 92 yr old dad now
has a heart that is prob better than mine. WOW.
Govt run health care would have no incentive to develop such a thing
in 5 yrs. My dad has pvt health ins, VA and medicare with his pvt
care paying most of it. Govt health care would simply say, "92 yrs
old, no reason to do much" but his mind is in perfect shape and I
expect he'll have 10 more years.

Talking out of your ass again.

My father just had a similar procedure done for clots in his legs and
medicare covered the cost.

Well, before I plonk you I should remind everyone you are well known for
making up stories to suit your agenda.. Shall we go back over the
American, er, um... German screwdrivers you use for your huge contracts
in the basement of your 3000 square foot house, under the watchful eye
of your 200+ IQ (pound?) wife... Pffftttt...
