breaks my heart

Well I guess I'm joining Ifish and Netman on the no fishing list for a while. Found out yesterday , after a couple of trips to the Dr. and wearing a heart monitor for 24 hours, I've got some kind of heart problem and no driving and nothing strenuous until this is resolved. Had electrocardiogram today and Monday I'll have a heart Catherization to find and fix the problem. At least there's atrial fibrillation and at worst by pass surgery so putr in a good word for me with the man up stairs and god fishing to all of you.

Good luck to you, I had a heart cath last week and they put in another stent. The man is watching over you as he does with me and all others.

Be praying for you buddy. I have had four caths. Best thing is if they find anything and are able to, they will patch you up right then and there. Good luck!

They'll get you patched up as good as new and once Wiskers gets off the boat, the weather will turn to crap again and you won't be missing a thing for a while.

Best wishes ol' buddy.

My prayers are with you. Don't worry, you'll be back out fishing in time for the summer night bite!

Good luck on everything. Prayers going up for ya.

Prayers inbound:) A stent wont keep you out very long but on the other hand bypass will. I've had six stents a balloon and a five bypass surgery but thanks be to the man upstairs shes still ticking. Hope for the best for you...

Prayers to you. You'll be back at it in no time.

Thanks for all the well wishes it's really appreciated Been in very good health for 70 years now and this ,quite frankly, scares the H--- out of me so for all of you that have been there and done that, thanks for the assurances they're really needed. Will post results after the cath is done.

Good luck, prayers sent

Prayers uplifted for you. Get it done now why you can. A year from now is a complete different story.

Anybody ever thought of a way to Keep Wiskers on the Dang Boat? Might save us all some bad weather and of course we'd catch more. Don't worry about a thing. I had a 5 way bypass and I am working on year 5 feeling better than ever and mean as a snake. Ask the wife!

prayers sent up for u

Had 2 stents and on third try to put in a stent dr. would not punch through the clog so had 4 bypass the next day, the dr said the road to recovery was to walk. The day i got home i was out in yard and walking up driveway, chruch members could not believe i missed one sunday service, the good lord gets the parise for my recovery. Prayers being sent.

Good luck! Prayers for you buddy.

Prayers sent

Certainly will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers!

Good luck on everything. Prayers going up for ya.

Good luck buddy. I had the same thing around the holidays. Started literally during the UofL v UK basketball game. Crazy fan here. Like a fool I put it off until after the new year and finally went in. Had a cath done and found a blockage. Put a stint in and 24 hours later I was back working. Lost 150lbs over the past 4 years but took the heart event to get me to put the cigarettes away. Stopped now for 5 months with no regrets. It was a simple process and you will pull through it. Even by pass is an everyday surgery compared to 10 years ago. You will be back on the water soon.

Heart cath results showed no blockages no bad valves or any other problem with my heart. Now here's the rest of the story. It did show an aortic aneurism that makes me a walking time bomb if it's not repaired soon. Wednesday is a CT scan with dye Thursday I see my heart Doc to find out when I'll have open heart surgery to repair it He's hoping for that to happen Friday or Monday. Thanks for all the well wishes and don't catch all the fish I hope I'll be after them in about 2 or 3 months God willing.

Good luck Wannabe, I will be praying for you and your doctors. When I broke my leg it kind of put me in a little funk. First time I have ever been down this long. I know God has a plan for all of us and you will look back at what you are going through and come out a stronger person. I have a co worker that had the same thing done and he came out great. Them doctors can do some great things. Hang in there and prayers are being sent!

Hang tough, brother .... your attitude and belief that you'll pull through is a huge factor in these situations. You'll just miss the HOT Summer fishing, but be back in the saddle come early Fall.

We'll all be pullin for ya to come out of this stronger than ever !!

Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes, they worked!! Doctor said today that although I do have an aneurism that it isn't bad enough for surgery right now, but he will be watching it with check ups and CT scans every 6 months. The normal aorts is 3.6cm and mine is 5.1cm the operational guide is 5.5cm so I have a little way to go before they'll operate.
Again thanks for all the prayers, I knew I could count on fellow C.Cers to come through.

wrong!!! back to work Monday with no restrictions, that was the best news. Just have to cut back a little = less hours.
for last 2 weeks I wasn't allowed to do anything until the problem was resolved. Even going back to work is better than that

Hey man, you're in my prayers. I have had a bunch of my parishoners have this done and they've come through fine and feel better afterward. I think you will too.

Great News for you! Even the Back to work part. Hope to one day see ya on the water!

Terry

Glad to hear your doing ok.
