Congratulations on "passing the test". Its always nicer to have those procedures behind us than waiting for them to take place.

Hey Andrew, check out taking L-Proline, L-Lysine, & C+ Vit C to reduce plaque a la the Linus Pauling-Mathias Rath theory. My mom had blockages in both carotid arteries (detected by ultrasound), she started taking a combo pill (500 mg of the first 2 and smaller amt of c) in addition to her daily mulitple & Vit C. 18 months or so later, all signs (sounds) of blockages are gone.
