Been in the hospital since Tuesday.  Just got home.  I had a cardiac catheterization (loads of fun).  So, within the past month I found out I have diabetes and high cholesterol and have taken a small heart attack.  Next, I'll probably be struck by lightning.

Holy crap dude!   :buggedout:

Glad that you're back home and I hope you're doing okay. My dad told me the other week that he'd suffered one (his dad had died about 2 months ago too). I'd noticed that he was being super nice and is now wanting to spend more time with me. He's really trying to cut his cholesterol and make the most of life.

Best wishes Burgo.  :smile:

Wow. :buggedout:

Glad you're OK.  Those hospitals aren't fun, are they?

Jack

Wow, sorry to hear that Burgo.  Glad you're out of the hospital!  Good luck and stay healthy my friend.

Scary news.  :buggedout:  The husband of a friend of mine had a heart attack last week too.  Worrisome.  Glad you're well enough to be home.  Now: take care and stay healthy!

That's terrible, Burgomaster. Hope you are recuperating nicely and quickly.

I'd just like to say that I'm sorry to hear about that.

Burgo, I'm sorry to hear that, but you're back to post, and that is what matters.

Heal up and the Thickburgers and Krispy Kremes are on me, my friend!

You DO know I'm kidding...right?

Yikes. That's terrible. How are you coping? The physical pain is certainly serious, but people often forget what an emotional kick in the head a heart attack can be. Hope you're getting lots of moral support at home.

So sorry to hear that.

While I've yet to experience it, I'm sure I'm looking at one in the near future.  My dad, his dad, I believe my other grandfather all had one, plus all suffered diabetes and drinking problems, all of which apparently are genetic.   I've had some chest pains over the past two years and have anger issues.

I'm hoping to avoid a heart attack.

It's all of those horrible movies and DVD's you've been buying and watching over the years. 
They can be hazardous to your health!

All kidding aside, I hope you get well soon.
