Red face Hospital fun...

Had some chest pain yesterday, went to ER, got admitted for having a mild heart attack. IV's hurt, but not as much as the cath through the artery in the groin. Fun stuff.

**** Greg, glad to hear you're OKAY!

How is Silke taking this?

So what did the Doctors say you need to do to avoid another one?

Take it easy for a while ...

I'm doing OK, he had me scared pretty good though! Funny thing is, he resisted going to the ER on Saturday until I told him to call our paramedic friend in New Mexico. Once she told him to pop an aspirin and hightail it to the hospital he finally gave in.

Thankfully the blockage was very small and the cardiologist said it can be treated with medication instead of more invasive methods.
