If you are North of 45 go to a good cardiologist. Most of us will pay for what we did 20 years ago. All you can do is change now so you don’t pay in the future. I go at least once a year. All blood. First year I did 4 tests and a stress test. After that blood- He did put me on some supplements. Fish oil, some vitamins, etc. adjusted my eating habits. Cut the salt back- I imagine Danny will be adjusting from our conversation

Did the exact same thing Glen... One of those, "if I only knew then what I know now"... deals

They call it the silent killer for a reason. Nope, I NEVER had a clue I had a 99% blockage. Not one clue. Then Sunday night came around and there were clues of on set heart attack but what do I know about that? It took about 2 hours to come on hard. Dull ache in my shoulder. Feeling like I had a jacked muscle in my shoulder. Then pain into the top arm... shortly pain 8n the chest and then shortly somethings bad wrong. Im having a heart attack.
Do over.... GO GET DYE SCANNED. Only way to find a blockage. High blood pressure don't mean you have a blockage. High LDL cholesterol is a hint but I only knew mine is after emergency room cardiac blood work.
Just go to the doctor and say, "Hey I know this guy that is pretty healthy. Scrappy, aint scared, but his heart gave out because he had a 99% blockage qnd never knew it. How do I keep that from killing me? The doctor will tell you. And if he don't want to dye test you.... find a doctor that will.
Glen the problem came in when all the nurses were dudes. But there was this one. He kinda liked me. LOLLast edited by Wildman; 09-15-2020, 07:27 PM.

Back in 2015, I went to my heart doc just for a check up. My deductible had been met and I was due for a check up. I had absolutely no signs of any problem. I lasted maybe 2 minutes on the treadmill and next thing I know I'm on a gurney heading to the ER. I wound up with 2 stents in my heart. I go see my cardiologist on a regular basis now.
