Guest guest Posted December 28, 2001 Report Share Posted December 28, 2001 Holly, I have one of stents that is suppose to come out on its own. My problems start when the stent comes out. With the last one I had a reaaly bad attack as it came out( had one this time but not as bad) and then I had three really good weeks. No pain or very little, and eating was not a problem. I just can not tell what is going to happen this time. I have good days, then really bad ones. I just hope this one works. I saw that you live in Ohio. I am originally from Columbus. My sister is still there and my husbands family is there. We come up often. Where do you live? I went to OSU, and have a nephew from here in Georgia that is going there.
