With no problems
a year ago I was in hospital with a what they called a heart attack.
went in on the 19th I think and spent Easter there.
and one year ago today had 2 stents put in. So am very happy to make it this long with no problems from the stents or the meds.

Wow... a year already!!! Well done, my friend, but then you were always going to make it with your determination and strength, weren't you? You have to stop giving us, your friends, these scares though!
Brightest Blessings my dear friend, and here's to many more anniversaries of that day! Cheers!

My sister went to have a tiny blockage cleared an ended up with a stent. She has been fine since as well. It's marvelous what can be done these days. I told my doctor I was having chest pains and he ignored me....go figure. If you stop hearing from me you will know why.

What great news Lakota and congratulations to you. I didn't realize it had been a whole year already since your heart attack but remembered a fellow MyLotter had posted a discussion about it in your behalf while you were recuperating.

I haven't seen you on here for awhile. I am certainly glad to hear that the two stents and the meds have been sucessful and worked for you. I am happy to say that I come from a long line of strong hearts but it is good to know that these things work. I bet you are happy. What a fantastic thing! It is amazing what technology can do now. Be proactive and stay happy.
