Hello friends,

I have been coming here for a few years now and recently underwent some serious cardiology tests; I recently posted regarding medical testing, and the results are that I have several severe blockages in my Aorta artery just above the belly button and some in the split for the leg arteries. The doctor told me that due to these blockages one of my intestines is at 98% blocked and the other is 100% blocked. Which means that my intestines are not getting an adequate blood flow to function properly.

I have had this problem for the past 7 yrs, in that time I went to the Lummi Indian Health Clinic and the VAMC in Seattle, both who diagnosed me with IBS. I am confused as to why after 3 simple cardiology tests I was diagnosed with something other than IBS.

Does anyone know what is going on here??? Thanks and blessings to all.
