:rotflmao: :rotflmao: who else!!!! :shocked: back in 2011 i had a 4 by heart bypass.
now it looks like in the near future i'll be getting another plumbing job. i've had a heart murmur for a while.....looking like a valve replacement!!!
funny though...........the cardiologist i had i've known him since about a year after mom and dad bought the cabin. he grew up there in the sticks. spent about 45 minutes with him..........spent a fair amount of it reminiscing about our parents and the times up there!!!! :happy1: :happy1:

Let us know where and when and we'll have a party in the lobby when you get out. I might even bring a bottle of ketchup. Or bourbon.
Best of luck to you, Glenn.

I had heart surgery 3 .months ago. Only stayed 1 night. No lifting anything heavier than gallon of milk for4 days. Blood thiners for a while as well.
You will get shaved from your knees to your shoulders.
I know some women that would wax you and video it for us. :rotflmao:

its kinda hard to explain but they go up through your main blood vessel near the groin area. Dr. Aplin do a superb job explaining it to me. to the extent he had a clean sheet of paper and drew pictures on both sides. he even explained what the heart surgeon did with my bypass!!!
thats how they were going to fix me up prior to the bypass..........they figured they'd put stents in...............until they got in there. :surrender: :doah:

ok clear as mud, but thanks!!

doc says see you again in 6 months then decide. Neck thing is first if there's issues
He said it's not urgent, he can still here my valve close. But sounds like it will need to be done

Well like my wife always says, be careful and don't overdo it.
