Had a heart Attack! - 06/14/22 12:18 AM

Spent a day and night in the hospital, got a bunch of holes in me from drawing blood and an angioplasty, with a stent and I'm good to go.

Further proof that God is not done with me yet.

Re: Had a heart Attack! - 06/14/22 08:38 AM

I’m glad you caught it and got treatment.
Do you feel better than before?

I have been in a holding pattern waiting for tests while it gets worse.

Probably go elsewhere

Bernie, you old coot, whatcha doing trying to scare the Mrs. like that!
During my hospital chaplaincy support, I got called to Cath Lab, Heart and Vascular every day, all day. It's a place where the sick get tended too and the family members are literally shaken and "shaking" from the trauma of it all. Heart stuff is real (I know personally) and gets everyone's attention because a here today - gone tomorrow is happening all the time.

Yep, God's not done with you yet brother because an eternity is a long time.

Blessings!

Iowa and Kansas! I'm going to do a video on the symptoms and what happened. Maybe it will help others.

Tightness in the chest was the first sign. It goes from there.

Don't head towards the light! I'm reminded of the Bob Marley song, "Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die". Glad your OK, listen to the Doc's, and do what they tell you.

Re: Had a heart Attack! - 06/15/22 12:56 PM

Feeling pretty much back to normal. A little shortness of breath due to one of the medications they are making me take and I can't lift anything over ten pounds for a few more days. Life pretty much is back to normal.

Since all my other arteries look great, and they fixed the bad one, the doctor told me I should be good to go for the rest of my life. He doesn't expect to see me in there again! I'm doing a video about the experience hopefully that will help some people. I'll post later today.
