Vascular problems: You'll be denying your providers and yourself some possibly important information regarding how to treat your vascular problem. Blockages in veins are not good and might result in some seriously threatening events - like stroke, etc. It's also important to see why blood calcium is high. Why not find out about these things? Consider it practice for Tx decisions. I hope it goes well - be strong!
