A heart catheterization was performed on me on 1/20/2000, which revealed that I have a blockage of one of my heart bypasses done 13 years ago. Before the catheterization I was in pretty good health and could exercise and swim in the pool at the local athletic club. Now I have become very limited in this respect.
I subscribe to the Cleveland Clinic Heart Advisor. In the July issue, enclosed, is a discussion by Dr. E. Murat Tuzcu which indicated that you, The Cleveland Clinic, may have developed a procedure which could clear a blocked artery. In view of the fine reputation of the Cleveland Clinic in developing new ways to correct heart defects or deficiencies, I am hopeful that you may have a solution to my problem.
Could you please inform me as to the possibility that you or any other facility (close to Florida) has the expertise to clear the block in my saphenous vein graft #4?
I thank you for anything you can do to help me.
