A member asked:
I have 75% stenosis of left subclavian artery alternating with 100% with back spasms. arm drk purple, then normal. how long can this go on before seri?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See vascular surgeon: If your arm is dark purple it is cyanotic. It is depleted of oxygen and should have a prompt evaluation. I would think it is already serious.
