I am glad they found the blockage while they can still do something about it.
Take care,

Going in for this in two hours. Thank all of you for your thoughts and prayers. I've had eight major surgeries on my right leg alone. This heart thing has got me and I'm nervous as hell.
Just took my boat into the shop to make sure all is good before I hit the Mississippi for my spring walleye. Having thoughts if I should still go solo on the Mississippi or Basswood via Prarie. Arrrggh...

You hang in there Yogi. The heart is an especially well studied organ and the corrective procedures are very well advanced. Last year my best friend suddenly found she had some heart issues and found herself in open hearts surgery and with a new pace maker. Six weeks post surgery she was on a 3 week trip to Spain with her husband. Today she saws and splits wood, and you would never know she had a problem.
Stay positive.

Just had a cardiac angoplasty done on Wednesday. Dr. told my ex wife every thing went ok. I had zero blockages. Haven't recieved my follow up call back yet. Don't understand it. Had a stress test before that.That test came back abnormal. Took a calcium scan before that. My score came back at 2006  can't understand why one would come back so high suggesting a high likelyhood of at least one major blockage of artery... My Doctor is considered a rock star.... He better have some good answers fo my follow visit...i have approximately 3 months for my boat trip up to ely.....was hoping to get lower back surgery to remove arthritis before that

Going in for a cardiac catheter on Wednesday. So much going on. First of all, my motor trip is June 19th. Was supposed to have lower back surgery last Thursday. During pre op stuff, they found a couple major blockages so they cancelled my back surgery to fix my heart.
So I'm thinking that I'm going to have to cancel my back surgery until summer.
Sorry, I'm scared and rambling.

Who knows, maybe after they install your catheter you may feel better than you felt in years. Your back is another story. Sorry to hear. I hope all goes well.

Hope all turns out well. Hang in there and think how much better you will be in the future. I have had major back surgery and it helped. But the heart issue must be dealt with first.

Best wishes for successful work on the heart first, then the back if necessary, and recovery from both. One day, and one procedure at a time. . .and the advice above for positive thoughts is good. Thinking of you, and just said a prayer, too.
