About Me (In My Own Words)
So now is the Sternum repair.
Because my Dad passed at 50 from 1st HA, I have been going to a cardiologist for about 16 years. Many stress test, sonograms, ekg’s. Only issue was triglycerides, with meds, they were good. The last two months I have noticed I had to stop walking halfway up the driveway. But I also have hypoxia. And with the stopping, I noticed slight pressure on my chest. So I told my cardiologist and another Dr. they did a ekg, said I was fine.
On 08/09/19, I was outside only installing a driveway cam. Fat me, I sweat, I mean sweat. When I finished I stripped down, jumped into the shower. Started to feel pressure, sat in the shower then dried off. By the time I made it to the couch, I was sweated up again, and took an aspirin, I was in trouble. Feel to the floor, wife to me into er. Catherization showed 4 major blockages. No stents, quadruple bypass.
