Bug away Capt'n...and be well, speedy recovery and keep bugging. We love to hear from you!
Get well Captain!
I will. But first I have to convince the Doc that rum is a natural blood thinner! Wait wine is heart heLthy right?
Yes wine is in limited amounts!
Thats where I went wrong, it's limited not limitless!
Well shave me belly with a rusty razor! Tis s’posed t’ be a stout wooden pegleg; nah a hollow pegleg fer stout. Ya bilge rat!
They shaved me with a clean razor! They stuck a camera and stint up my.... femoral artery!
So does anyone have any questions? My attack lasted for 6 hours, because I didn't know ALL the signs of a heart attack.

What the hell? I have a heart attack at the same time Taco bell introduces naked chicken chaloupa's? Not friken fair!
Coincidence? I think not.
But I cant have one! The universe is against me.
Maybe it's for the best. Have you seen these chalupas? You try your first one and you're hooked!
I only see them on tv. I am betting they look different out in the wild. All I really have eaten in the past 2 days is porage (sp) and broth. I die a lttle from longing everytime the naked chicky chalupa comercial comes on.
So the reason I put this whole mess on Snapzu is because I like new experiences. I know it may seem weird but this is all interesting as heck. Plus I lived through it so I have no idea how it will affect me yet. There are some things that I had no idea the body could do. Like the signs of a heart attack and how long a heart attack can last ( by the way it's weeks). I didn't know that my right artery/ventricle was 100% blocked. But my heart has been rerouting blood through it by building new pathways (veins???). So this has been going on awhile. I also learned that on paper, for years, I have been in perfect health other than a back injury. I always get tested for everything, blood, diabetes, cholesterol, etc, Twice a year and have had no problems whatsoever. But suprise! Here's a major heart attack for you bitch! I will have to work on getting better tests!
Well crap. Guess who now has a preexisting condition!!! Fuck a duck if I ever need to change insurance now.
Yo-ho-ho-ho! How's th' grub? When be ye gettin' sprung from th' hospital? Be ye well treated by ye captors? Get well before I sail out 'n by grog git ye well.
Hey! I got out of the hospital!!! They can't keep a good, or bad, pirate down. But I am concerned about being out of the hospital. I think it has more to do with the doctors/hospitals recovery numbers than my ability to kick the reapers ass. I caught a ccna and a nurse talking about the cardio doctor and the "problem" with him being so late when he was called in to fix me and pressure foe the hospital to.get better tirn aroind times. But I am not going to complain because hospital beds suck and I couldn't sleep much. I also learned that nospotal beds, the new ones, adjust the firmness and softness automaticly to a persons weight and position. So it is always moving underneath you. So I would get in a comfortable position then 2 min later the bed woild adjust itself and I would be uncomfortable again. The things you learn!
Glad to see you're out and about!
That sounds worse than a water bed. I hate those things! I've not been hospitalized since I was a kid for having my tonsils removed.
No clue what that is. Can you explain? Anyway,I'm glad you got through the ordeal. Want to hear about my unsedated colonoscopy? :D
It is supposed to be cna, certified nurses assistant. A nurses helper, they take care of taking vitals and wipe buts. I have yet to have a colonoscopy!
Glad to hear you are out!
Ahoy! How 'ave ye been sleepin'? Wha' o' yer kith 'n kin? 'Ave they all confessed thar guilt fer how they each contributed t' yer many aggravations, yet? Patience, me fellow. They 'ave t' sleep sometime!
Had a few problems last week and I feel like I have only been sleeping. The cut they made at the femoral started to look weird and complicated. I still have to work on my "Aggravation" in life. It will be a long road to change.
Dr told me its stent.
Forgive me though your description of the symptoms and effect are something I have experience of with hospitalisation for a cardiac infarction when I was 43. I was working in an office and discovered slumped over my keyboard. It was not fun in any way. Not going to bore you with the details though suffice to say It transpires I had had myocarditis. I'm fortunate only now needing beta blockers. Though still ocassionally get a signal jolt when I'm asleep sometimes which can, near instantly, double my heart rate; a bit scary. Enough from me already as I'm quite new to snapzu really. I wish you well and hope you make as full a recovery as possible.
Hi! Thanks for turning me on to The Killing of Sister George by the by.
Hi, did you watch it? Long ago now, though I thought it was good for its time.
Found it, or something close to it back then. Ripping good yarn, thanks!
That's it! ☺
How goes the war?
