Q: after 4 mounths post op stent placement in right thigh and ballon in left, i have a good pulse in left and none to very week in right with sorness and weakness starting again in both upper parts of legs??

: You probably had the procedures done for the external iliac arteries. If the current symptoms are almost the same before the procedures, the arteries are likely re-stenosed, i.e. failed intervention, so you need to see the interventional cardiologist or vascular surgeon who did the procedures. Good luck.
