staying alive --staying alive...Ivan gets aq stint -- widow maker unplugged just in t

[ivan salis]

just got out of the hospital … seems that I had a "widow maker" type blockage of my blood vessel coming from my heart --97% blocked --thankfully it was found opened back up and a stint put in --I'm feeling a good deal better now but will be on a seriously no salt diet and other meds … for the rest of my days...

I know the feeling. Had 2 heart attacks, both widow-makers, in 3 months.

Glad you are still with us Ivan.

Welcome to the club you don't want to be in Ivan! I have 12 stents. Next stop is bypass if we catch it in time. Hang in there buddy!

Good news & timing. Stay healthy.

Walking is good exercise. A friend has a stent put in after he was revived after ten minutes of not breathing. Walked five mile a day. That was six years ago. No problems since.

congrats on your survival. Did the surgeons have to crack open your breastbone to place the stints ?

 

[Boatlode]

Very glad you are ok, Ivan. Good thing they caught it.

Do what your doctor tells you.

 

[ivan salis]
