How does this affect you, day to day, now? It sounds like some bad damage occurred.

“How does this affect you, day to day, now? It sounds like some bad damage occurred.”

fortunately, i possess the anatomical structure called the palmar arch, which connects the radial artery and the ulnar artery at the wrist, so circulation to the hand can still take place via the ulnar artery even if the radial artery is occluded ... most people, but not everyone, possess the palmar arch ...

some studies estimate occlusion of the radial artery as high as 38% as a consequence of radial artery cardiac catheterization ... my advice is to always have cardiac catheterization done via the femoral artery ...
