I am now scheduled to undergo a surgery in the first week of June where a vein would be taken from my lower thigh and put in my left arm where it would bypass the fistula and supply blood to the hand.Kamal D Shahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10671037449347982821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4155770613355202151.post-79270897495043651142017-04-27T11:46:28.652+05:302017-04-27T11:46:28.652+05:30Ok, will check.

I hope your doctors find out what's really with your hands.<br />I remember I had a patient before, complaining of numbness on the hand with the fistula. It was steal syndrome. She was clueless for a while what was causing it, but when she stopped hanging out with her friend who smokes, her symptoms were relieved. Hope this helps a bit, I've read in your previous post though that your case isn't steal syndrome.Pinhttp://www.dialysisupdate.comnoreply@blogger.com
