Had MRI report Confirming a mengioma 37x35x21mm It is occluding the left internal Carotid but need Ct Angio to assess extent of occlusion.

Just had a stroke 3 weeks ago from blocked artery, 80-90% Having surg in 2 days. Had ultrasound 4 years ago with nothing showing. In that time has increased dramatically. Vascular surgeon and cardiologist have listened and no swooshing sounds. I guess I have a a silent one. LIttle to no lasting effects from the stroke but this is scaring the hell out of me. I am sleeping more than being awake. Don't know if I will have another stoke before surg. I am just so tired all the time. I am afraid to fall asleep since not knowing If I will wake up again. Can't wait till this is over to try and lead a somewhat normal life again. Always exercised and watched my diet. I feel so weak and helpless now.

My right & left side External Carotid arteries are bad, one is 100% occluded & the left is almost that bad. They have mentioned stroke...

I just turned 40 years old, and I have been diagnosed with 2 dissected carotid artires. I stared getting headachs that would not go away and my doctor just treated them. I woke up one day and my head felf like a bowling ball, I could not get up to walk myself, my mom had to take me to the hostiptal where I was diagnosd with 2 dissections and a mini stoke in the back of my head. I still suffer from constant headachs and have speech impedements along with inbalance issuses. I also have been seen my many docters and finally been recommended to see a vascular surgan. I am schulded for a angio cathrization in a few weeks. I don't know what to expect and I am a little nervous.

How are you know? How much percentage of block you had in carotid artery?

Incidentally, according to my 'carotid report graph', my 'right carotid ICA showed 0-10% stenosis consistent with no visualized plaque and PSV below 105 CM/S' and my 'left carotid ICA showed 20-39% stenosis consistent with visualized plaque and PSV below 105 CM/S'. Is this really bad?! Can this homogenous plaque rupture, or would it need to be more advanced/thicker? And how do I know if the plaque is stable? I wish Cardiologists took the time to explain to us, and allay (or confirm)our fears!

I am worried. My question is if she make surgery is that possible she can be recover the same mother 2 years ago means she can speak properly and walk I am really depressed looking adivces

was told 80 % blockage by duplex and told would get e more accurate result from Cat scan angiogram. report only says diameter at maximal stenosis roughly 1.5mm, corresponding to a 80-90% stenosis by NASCENT criteria No occlusion. What do i do next ? if 80 % i think i would pass on the endarterectomy but at 90 percent i might risk the surgery. how do i get a better "estimate" is MRI better. Anyone ?

High cholesterol is a myth in this. D3 and K2 prevent plaque. Particle size of cholesterol also matters.

Over the last 23 years, I have performed over 100,000 carotid duplex scans, in the "screening environment" that he gave absolutely ZERO credit to. Shame on you sir, for negatively generalizing, qualified techs in the field, who are identifying significant, asymptomatic, carotid stenosis in people, who have no idea that they may be walking time bombs, because your stethoscope could not detect a carotid bruit. WE are the warriors, making a difference in helping educate people, and giving them access to these scans, that they would not normally have, due to high costs, and refusal of insurance companies to pay doctors to order them, until someone has symptoms, IF they are lucky enough to have symptoms, which most DO NOT.

The Doctor says he sees lots of patients who have had carotid duplex scans from outside labs that indicate need for surgery. But after scanning these patients at his hospital, it turns out the scans are okay. But it is not clear what went wrong with the original scans. I thought it would be like x-rays and relatively straightforward procedure. But maybe it is complicated and requires highly skilled scan operators.
