Take it easy for a bit, eh?
They don't write those discharge instructions because they've got nothing better to do ...

Sorry to hear about your H/A, but glad to hear you're feeling OK now.
I had the same procedure 23 years ago and I'm still going strong.
Stock up on baby aspirin!

Thanks. The odd part is I had one blockage of 95%, but everything else looked fine.Sorry to hear about your H/A, but glad to hear you're feeling OK now.

What’s more, there was never even an indication before that.

I had strange flu-like feelings the day before my H/A, but no chest pains or breathing problems.

Wey hey! Pleased it all seems to have been dealt with by the medical people so quickly, having people ask how you are 50 times a day now is a price well worth paying.

Sounds like someone I know! Had my stent done in January. A little patience goes a long way. Oh, and there ain’t no such thing as a minor heart attack!
Patience? All they got in here is patients!

It took my hospital forever to release me. I even sat out in the hallway waiting to go home! I had had a private room (that's another story!) but they couldn't use it until I was released! And to make matters worse there was massive construction of new buildings and a multi-story parking structure going on which made it difficult for my daughter to pick me up curbside!

Sorry to hear about the heart attack. Glad to hear you're ok. Did they figure out what triggered it? Spending too much time on B&H?
Kidding aside, if you're unhappy with your care, you're not far from Ann Arbor. UofM straightened out my lung cancer and I can't stop recommending them to anyone I run across with serious health issues. They saved my life.
Best wishes and stay off that B&H site for awhile.

Been there done that, quad bypass done and done.
Getting out sure beats the alternative, take your time, enjoy life.
Glad to hear you survived, I enjoy your pictures, a lot.
I'm kind of surprised the blockage wasn't shaken apart by all the exhaust vibrations you've been subjected to while shooting the drags.

Was in St. Joseph. Not dissatisfied with the treatment at all, just the S-L-O-W ass process. They're struggling with staff same as the rest of the world. St. Joe's and U of M are equal in treatment, and only a few miles apart. When we go to the hospital it's a tossup. If one is too busy we go to the other. We are lucky to live within 15 minutes of 2 major world-class hospitals.Sorry to hear about the heart attack. Glad to hear you're ok. Did they figure out what triggered it?

End result: ZERO damage to heart. Heart rated 'perfect' in all respects. Valves, wall thickness, pressure, etc. The only problem was the clogged artery.
LESSON: Listen to your body. I did my very best to blow it off as being stiff from sleeping wrong, or just imagining things. Tried to talk myself out of going. I was weeks away from a catastrophic clog that I may not have recovered from.
