@Ihurt - We have members who’ve had “conscious sedation” i.e. were awake enough to be cooperative w/ the doctor doing the venogram during the procedure. This post by @jalexy12
was made earlier today:
I recall someone in the past mentioning having a venogram w/o any sedation & saying she felt a lot of pressure during the procedure, but it wasn’t unbearable. I don’t know that she had a balloon occlusion test though.
Is your friend seeing Dr. Patsalides for her testing?
