Poor me has to go to the hospital on Monday where they want to insert some balloons in my leg arteries and blow them up, in the hope that blood circulation will improve. 
If you don't hear from me within a few days, they'll have botched up something.

Be sure they DEflate them before they take them out. 
Sounds better than the guy in Seattle that wanted to insert balloons into my sinus cavity and inflate them to cure me of my clusters. I hope its not the same guy 
Good luck Ueli

All the best Ueli and I hope you stay frisky. 
Bob: Don't let doctors play around with your sinus cavities without half a dozen consultings. They said that I had a deviated septum too with 25% capacity in one nostril. Really? I'm been blowing snot through it for nearly 59 years and doing just fine.
I have some good information that way way too much surgery like this is done. It's costly, and they get away with it because no one can prove that it didn't need to be done after the fact.
It's a nasty liitle game that they like to play on us. There oughta be a law.

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

Hope the little weather balloons come back with an "all clear" report.
1783, Ballooning was a new fascination in Paris. August 27th, a 12 foot in diameter hydrogen-filled balloon of Jacques-Alexandre Charles rose from the Champ de Mars to a height of 3000 feet and traveled for 12 miles, falling in a village northeast of Paris. Cart drivers who witnessed the descent were petrified as it fell toward them. They went at the giant with rocks and knives, until it emitted "a death rattle."

I hope you have pretty nurses with a lovely view and edible hospital food!
Mind you.. pretty nurses might do wonders for your circulation on their own...
Get well soon either way!
