Thread: Recent Heart Attack

Reaper, sure glad to know you're doing ok after your heart attack and procedure. Many do not survive and the lucky ones realize how precious life really can be. Can't imagine not having you, or Chatt, around to pester here in the forum. I'll say a big thank you to the Lord in my next round of prayers and ask Him to watch over you. I plan on bringing my medical bag to the crappie tournament and will do blood pressures and pulseOx on anyone interested in getting an accurate reading.

Wow Reaper I had no idea. Hope your back to full strength real quick. You sure are lucky you went and got checked. Hope I'll see you on the water soon.

Can you imagine telling you wife that a feller named STINKFINGER checked your pulseOX and blood pressure at the tourney..Just kiddin Jim sounds like a wonderful thing to do..Thanks......Ranger

It's my pleasure to be able to help Ranger.........and I really mean it's "my pleasure". By the time I check their blood pressure, it's too late........hahahaha.

glad to here your ok now. Glad they could put the stints in. About 13 years ago my dad had a heart attack and he was inoperable. Suprisingly he's still alive and kicking. i appreciate your post as since this type of issue runs in my family regardless of what I do I have a good chance I will be dealing with this one day and reading your story gives me stuff to look for.

Thanks for the kind words guys and gals. My blood pressure was only 147/79 after I had checked myself in. It makes me wonder how bad the attack may have been if I wasn't an active person. I don't excercise but a full day of work is like working out all day long. Especially if I'm doing a Stairway. I was told that I was very lucky that I thought enough about it to get checked out because if I didn't, the next one might have checked ME out permanently.

Might check BP's and P'OX before weigh in cause after last years I am sure mine was alil high..lol...Ranger
