I Survived A Heart Attack...

I Survived A Heart Attack...
On Thanksgiving of 2016 I started having significant pain and pressure in my chest. I went to the ER.

After tests... doctors determined I had a moderate heart attack.

So docs sent me to the cath lab and they looked inside my heart.

Turns out I had:

100% Blockage (which was old)
90% blockage
70% Blockage
And FIVE 40% blockages.

After a couple of caths to implant stents I was gave the all clear and released.

The old 100% blockage had bypassed it's self. Which is rare to happen!

Turns out I had at least 5 heart attacks before this one.

The kicker I didn't have any heart damage.

So not only did I survive a 100% blockage... rare! But walked around with it for a year. I had no damage to my heart. I thank Jesus and Bourbon for that. My daily cup of bourbon thinned my blood enough that I didnt die.

I was 31 at the time of the last heart attack and weighed 190 pounds... and I was very active. In case your wondering. I walked 15,000 steps a day on average. This can happen to you at any age. Any fitness level.

I've seen many cardiologist since and got all kinds of different opinions and they all agree. They don't know HOW I am alive.... much less have no damage to my heart. God and Bourbon. God and Bourbon.

They had to break up the cath procedures to two.

The 100% blockage was last to be dealt with.

They told me it carried an increased risk for death. Before that I was fairly calm. Lol. I was kinda scared after that. Lol. But held steadfast.

If it's ur time to go... it's your time to go. Still. I didn't want to go :)

WOW! You are very lucky, or blessed...probably both.

For health reasons, I think we should all drink some bourbon tonight!
 Quoting: right_foot


I think so too. Luck and blessing go hand in hand :)


Blessed are the lucky.

I'm definitely gonna pour a bourbon tonight.

I asked the cardiologist who done my life saving procedures if I should quit drinking bourbon and he said.

"GOOD GOD WHY? It saved your life. You wouldnt be here today if you didn't drink!!!"

Lol. Sound advice doc.

cheers

Re: I Survived A Heart Attack...
I think I had one three months ago as I was going through extreme emotional distress. Got all worked up then bam, first my leg then my chest, then finally it grabbed my neck like I was being choked from the inside. My daughter asked if I wanted a squad but I said wait a minute. It subsided and been okay since. I try not to get so worked up anymore, 60 years young. Look 40, plenty of hair, no wrinkles, none. Just disabled like a mofo.

Believe nothing you hear and only half of what you see.

I'm just a product of insufficient modality.

Humans of Earth! I have come in peace. You need not fear me. I mean you no harm. However, it may be important to know that most of you will not survive the next 24 hours. And those of you who do survive will be enslaved and experimented on. You should in no way take any of this personally — it's just business!

Take at least an aspirin a day and get a cardiologist. I ignored many signs of pain that turned out to be heart attacks.

I recalled every time I had one... I was just too stubborn to go to the hospital. Each time could have been my death though. Get checked out.

Oh yes definitely.

Many deaths in their 40's from heart issues going back 100's of years on BOTH sides. I was screwed genetically. Even of my people live to be "old" - it's their hearts that get em in the end.

Never been a big beer drinker. I'm a one and done before moving on yo whiskey kinda drinker.

Love the taste if beer. But my body is so fucking stupid that if I drink a couple beers I'm blind drunk... if I drink half a fifth of Bourbon I can operate normally. Always been that way. Odd.
