During the procedure 2 ml of absolute alcohol was injected in the blood vessels of the heart in order to block the blood supply to the thickened muscles of the heart. This reduction in blood supply immediately reduced the thickness of the muscle and intern the dynamic obstruction. The relief achieved by the technique was evident immediately after injecting alcohol into the blood vessels of the heart. >> NOW, if only some good heart would devise an ingenious cannula for self-administration of ALCOHOLIC ABLATION into respective blood vessels :-) Of course, they would also need to ensure availability of 'absolute alcohol' in 2 mls! It would truly be a sweetheart of a deal for M A N Y who's yearn for it. Pat
