I had a stent inserted to improve blood flow from my left leg. From the moment the pain medication wore off on the table that day I have had back pain on that side. They told me the pain would subside, and it hasn't. I have some days with less pain and some with more, but I fear that I will now have this back pain the rest of my life. If I could go back, I would have never gotten this procedure done. The risk of back pain was never mentioned to me before the procedure. I recommend you do research specifically on back pain associated with this procedure before you get it done. I wish I had.
