In another thread, someone asked where I am located.

I could only move as far north as Toledo, so my tax dollars go to OSU.

But I do go over the border frequently.

OhioState, you are right. i told Richard that there are many good PC doctor in michigan that is another reason for us move back. you know, if we still live in michigan, my husband's surgery would be done at Henry ford, sonny's sergeon.

Richard's family doctor was able find out that he had little build up in his blood vine at neck area just by listen to it.

oh well, i do believe that there are great doctor here in columbus just we need time to find out.

Happy holiday to you!

The sound in a stenosed (partially blocked) carotid artery is called "bruits". Bruits can typically be heard when there is >40% but less < 90% blockage.

Happy Thanksgiving All
