Wow. Glad you're still around. Two years ago you would have had a quadruple bypass but 30 years ago you'd be on a slab.

No question, my Grandfather passed at 70 from heart failure in 1963. Dad had the quad bypass about 15 years ago. They showed me some high tech pictures of the arteries, very dramatic and eye opening. I am not normally a very religious, but the nobody could explain the loud ear ringing, that finally got my attention. |

Holy Shit
Glad to hear you're alright, Ed. Is that it? they put in some stints and patted you on the back and told you to go home? My Father had 3 heart attacks and 6 bypasses, the last and fatal one in 94, there were no such things as stints back then. it truly is amazing how modern medicine has come. God bless you Ed. |

So we can assume you'll be quitting smoking and watching the diet?

Good god, man. Chest pain + heart problems in your family = get the hell to a hospital ASAP!
Anyway, glad to hear that you're OK. Take care of yourself. |

I was semi-awake through most of the "intervention" that lasted about 2 1/2 hours. They used some very, very good drugs. Afterwards, they actually seemed more concerned about the hole they made in my groin, for entry, than the stints afterwards. Fortunately, I have very low blood pressure, so that made things much better in a lot of areas. |

My old man used to smoke chesterfields His cardiologist told him that he would rather him gain 200 lb's than smoke one cigarette. Anyway, I'm glad to hear it wasn't too invasive and that you're doing well. |
