I had a VAD 6 months ago linked to a chiropractic neck adjustment. I had a MRA on saturday, but no follow-up till 2 weeks from now. I have a family trip next week and called my Neuro to check on any restrictions. He was on rounds, but nurse called me back and said no high-velocity rides (including even then disneyland teacups). Scan was said to be stable. If you have seen VADs what is the timeframe that total healing can be seen? Stable just doesn t make me feel too confident.
