Hospital time...

[FredEx]

Just got out of the hospital today. Went in Thursday for an Angiogram. My pacemaker had reported a few times my heart was messing up. Ended up with a stent to fix a blockage in what they call, The Widowmaker. That artery gets blocked and you have a heart attack you will most likely die. Tests show the heart is working okay, but a little weakened, just need to get my fucking brain working okay. I feel things and think things are happening that are not happening. I have had life long panic and anxiety problems.

A have an Angioseal which seals where they went in near my groin. Gets you up and moving in a couple hours, better than stitches and a sandbag for hours. It is collagen based and dissolves as it heals as long as 90 days. Just limited to lifting no more than 5 pounds for 5 days.

When I got up to piss I had to call the nurse and when I came out she'd have to check my groin. All the nurses I had when on the cardiac floor were great looking, the one from midnight to 7:00 am was a real hottie and super nice. I had to get up and piss a lot so she could check my groin again and again and again and...

Keep your pecker up dude. I've come to the conclusion that your mental state is the most important thing in life. Get your head right and everything else will follow. Keep positive fella and good things are more likely to happen. Hope you have a good Christmas, just try and keep looking forward.

I love this forum for people like you. For people like Tom and all other members who are all nice persons. Like you I have heart problems, at 36 I went to hospital for surgery and they put me 4 stents. I have anxiety problems as well. Since then my life has changed a lot. Like sheroo and TheLastRebel said, health is more a mental state. That's why I'm a pc and stuff addicted, that relax me a lot and keep me away from everiday problems. Wish you all a wonderful Christmas!

Thanks folks. On top of that my 88.5 year old mother was in the hospital. I had to go 26 miles north to the larger hospital while she was in town at their smaller hospital with her heart acting up again. Similar problem, her heart was speeding up and dropping which would make her not be able to catch her breath. Mine I didn't feel, but it was my lower heart acting up, her the top part. The lower part acting up is far more dangerous. They got her straightened out too. It just took a med change for her. So that has been on my mind too.

Blobbuzzo, take care of yourself. My bro (64) and his daughter came over to shovel the snow out of my driveway, it is about 80 feet long and they are both big and came in huffing and puffing. My niece is 37 and a heart attack waiting to happen. My bro, he for sure is, a diabetic that eats crap food and sweets all the time.

Merry Christmas to you all or Merry whatever you celebrate.
