So, who here has had a cardiac cath/stent?

during dinner last night, my wife the cardiologist nurse said there were risks with the procedure and mentioned that the cardiologist and her were talking about WHERE they should go in to do the deeds.. she said the cardiologist asked her, "What what he prefer losing - an arm or a leg?".. WTF? Is there THAT much risk with this procedure that, once they get in, has a 50-50 chance of being even able to treat the blockage? That's an awfully big risk to do a procedure where they might not even be able to get rid of the blockage, if its not bad enough..
