Good vibe request

path12 · 01-14-2008, 05:21 PM

I guess it's my turn for one of these. I'm going into the hospital on Wednesday for an angiogram. I've been having some chest pains over the past five-six weeks, and after a couple of tests my cardiologist is convinced there is some sort of blockage in my arteries. With luck they'll be able to either put in a stent or balloon at the same time they do the angiogram. Worst case would be that there is a blockage they can't get to, which would require a bypass.....but we all think that my symptoms would probably be worse if that were the case, so I'm not worrying about that too much.

I had two stents put in about ten years ago (which is really a good way to quit smoking), and have been on cholesterol medicine ever since (my cholesterol is around 120 or so now), so it's a bit surprising to have this come up again, but there's no sure answer to these things.

Anyway, it's a little scary to have this happen twice at just 45, and any good vibes you can send along would be much appreciated. It's good just to be able to type this up, if that makes any sense.

You've got my best wishes. I had a heart scare last year that wound up being a false alarm, but that was scary as heck.

Sending lots of good vibes in your direction my good friend.

It's ALWAYS better to find out these kinds of little issues this way then the alternative. You did what most men don't - you went and got something checked out when you had symptoms. If it's anything, it'll be taken care of.

I'll be thinking of you bud...

Don't worry -- I sent double vibes, so you're covered. And I sent them in such a way that the amplitude is doubled -- not in a way so that they all cancel each other out.

But seriously, good luck path!
