Went to my Cardiologist Tuesday for a routine procedure, treadmill, just for a "let's see how you're doing for 62". Took them 12 minutes to run me to 140 bpm (I run regularly and stay in shape). After 3 cardiologists, all from Johns Hopkins Hospital, looked at the results I found myself admitted to Hopkins the next day for a cardiac catheter which showed 3 blockages in the same right artery, one was 99% closed. I'm now the proud owner of 3 stents and feeling good, returned home today. I post this because I never had any symptoms. I ran with Eileen last Sunday 3 miles, Monday 2 miles with no negative physical feelings. So for all youse guys, please make sure you don't skip scheduling your routine appointments because as Forrest Gump sez "You never know what you're gonna get".

Good for you Drew. I'm 74 and my doctor is "The VA, thank you for your service to our country". They discovered I have an aneurysm a couple years ago and they were freaking out. "Gotta" get something done about this but since Affordable Care kicked it isn't serious enough to operate. End of story. My attitude? I've had a great life but I feel sorry for our children.
