Endo-arteritis: The widow maker is the L main coronary artery. You probably had an abdominal aneurysm removed for infection? The stent placement in the LM is standard. A swollen foot, requires that the Dr. who did the aneurysm surgery examines you. You may have deep vein clotting, and have therapy, sometimes in hospital, give him a call like today,
