RE: Reward amounts
Glad to hear that you are on the mend. I witnessed the build up of fluids to staggering amounts with my mother going into congestive heart failure, so I know how scary it is.

RE: Reward amounts
Just a note to let everyone know that I will have a heart catheterization Monday. From that we will determine the next step. My cardiologist told me there is a chance it would require nothing or if one artery is showing signs of blockage it would only require a stent. If more than one is showing blockage his recommendation would be a bypass.

Root for either nothing or the stent, please.Smile

RE: Reward amounts
I'm praying for you Rob.
On things like this, I find it works better than just rooting
(but I'm rooting for you too) Angel

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?

Me, too!

Rob, will they do the stent the same time as the catheterization if you need one or is that a separate procedure?

RE: Reward amounts
I'm in the minority among my friends - one of the few who does not have a stent or a by-pass, and I pray that it stays that way. However, they are all doing much better after their procedures. I know you will do better also. I'm praying...

RE: Reward amounts
You're in my prayers, Rob. A close friend had a stent put in at 53 and he's as healthy as a horse now. My Uncle had quadruple bypass done this week at 72 and he's fine. Those operations are run of the mill now. You'll be fine. Nothing is more important than your health. Listen to them sawbones and get recovered real soon.

My understanding is that it would be done right then. Even with that, the doctor said I would be able to go home that day.

Thanks everyone for your kind words and thoughts. Hopefully one of these days I'll feel like getting back to work on my book.
