Swollen face that requires angiogram

2017-04-10 16:40:30
My aunt being a kidney patient takes up 3 dialysis sessions per week. Her face is swollen due some particular nerve blockage. As a treatment, doctors have suggested 2 ways. One is angiogram and the other is shifting fistula from left to right and then blocking left. We are not able to figure out which procedure is recommendable.
