Well That Didn't Last Very Dang Long

Ya'll's prayers must have worked. The doc found 2 places with 80% blockage and put a stent in each of them! Wowzers! That gets me up to 4 total stents. Sheesh.

My blood pressure is down almost 30 points, top and bottom. I'll stay in the hospital overnight and should be cut loose tomorrow to head home.

Thank you one and all.

May the surgeons hands be guided and your health under the Lords, the docs and wife care be better.

 

Sends good Mojo...

 

Good news!

 

We are arrived at home. Whew! Things went well. The doc stopped by this morning and explained things in nice, slow, single syllables that even I could understand.

It seems that my right coronary artery had a couple of locations with 80+% blockage. Anything over 70% is severe. Here's a little blurb on it: http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/heal...ar_diseases/coronary_heart_disease_85,P00207/

I now have 2 additional stents that should open the coronary artery and, after reading the symptoms, take care of my shortness of breath. Yaaay! So far, things are going well. The incision sealed up like it was supposed to, no complications yesterday afternoon, evening or last night. My blood oxygen is up by 10%, blood pressure is down almost 25%. I'm thinking more clearly and feeling sharper.

All iin all, I think this may just do the trick. Now it's up to me to do my part with dietary changes, more exercise and be sure to take my meds, including 2 new ones, faithfully. Sweetie is major relieved, as is our son....not to mention I am very hopeful.

The only negative is that the wind is blowing like crazy making the sky brown as dirt. Yuck! But, springtime in SENM is that way for about 3-5 weeks.

Thanks for all the prayers and good wishes.

Excellent. God bless.

Tha's a bunch of tubes to keep yer blood running bro...time to get a juicer and drink kale/apple/carrot with a scoop of yogurt by the mason jar. The good news is that you're smoked and seasoned enough now that chugging kale smoothies won't turn you into a Liberal 1/2 fag.

Might be time to add nitro pills and asprin to your wallet, glove box, BOB, back pocket, inside pocket and a couple under the brim of your hat.

Very glad you pulled though but "just saying" for the keklols.

Sent up a Thanks to JC for the answered member prayers and asked that He spread a few blessings around to all those who put a good Word in for ya.

Take it easy!

MG, I just showed your recipe recommendation to Sweetie. I may try it on Saturday....provided Sweetie doesn't lock me in the house! LO L OL

 

I wasn't kidding aboot the Kale Apple Carrot juicer drinks.
I should be doing it too...and that's the only one I actually liked.
I could prolly stomach it with added spinach now too as a "meal replacement".
