Thankfully the blockage was very small and the cardiologist said it can be treated with medication instead of more invasive methods.
You saved his life right there. So many people die from un-diagnosed heart attacks it's ridiculous.

I wish I could, but I can't. Talking about it here (on the Internet) would lead to more stress...

Thanks everyone for your thoughts, prayers and get well wishes.

Glad to hear you got to the ER quickly Greg... sorry to hear about it happening though. I wish you the best man, just don't take chances. If you feel chest pain, shortness of breath, or any of the obvious symptoms of a heart attack just call 9-11 right off the bat. Better sooner than later.

I'm glad to hear you are ok, thank god for insurance...not all of us in this country have it

Forget the iced tea, I want the Roscoe's Chicken & Waffles...

Not quite sure about the caffeine now, however.
