so tomorrow I go to the same hospital that threw me out three weeks ago to have another angioplasty done.
I had gone into the hospital on Valentines Day with another heart attack and while there they did an angiogram and while doing it used a balloon to reopen one of my three stents. He said after the procedure that a second one was 70 percent blocked as well but he did nothing about that one. Now three weeks later I have to have the second on done.
I am concerned since every time they do this they go in the arteries up to the heart with a wire and there is always a chance of a puncture and bleeding. Plus the general inconvenience of having to do it all again. Hopefully I won't have to stay, especially after the last time which ended so badly.
Anyway good thoughts, prayers and good wishes all will be appreciated by anyone so inclined.
Thanks
Good luck and hope all goes well. Get feeling better quick! Stuff like that scares me half to death.

My best and most sincere wishes to you Arwenmark…
I recall the day my stent was put in and I know something of your apprehension. Just try to keep those positive thoughts going, just to keep out the negative ones. Need your stress kept low now. Hang tough...…
