Im home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This has been an experience for sure. Earlier this week I seen the cardiologist and he was thinking of releasing me for work. The stress test and echo-cardiogram showed no problems. I told him I still had to do that fitness assessment and what should I do if I started having chest pains again. Also told him I needed a full release stating the test I had, his findings with a full release. Thats when he said he wasnt able to see the bottom of my heart too well on the test and decided to do the angiogram. Damn good thing he did with what he found wrong. %80 blockage on one artery and %30 to %40 blockage on the other arteries, and those test didnt show any blockages.
Of course when they was prepping me the dirty old man in me came out. Was thinking to myself it was suppose to be every mans dream to have 3 cute gals playing with him as they was trimming my privates. :teehee: Anyways they kinda keep you awake but well relaxed during the procedure. They tried to go thru my arm and couldnt so had to go thru my crotch which means two veins was cut. My right leg still hurts from it. It wasnt too bad until they went to put the stint in. Donno why but my left arm starting aching like a bitch and heart was hurting like hell. I told them I think I was having a heart attack and they said I was ok and soon I wont feel anything, thats when they gave me the good shit that knocked me right out.
After that i woke up in the room laying flat and not allowed to move. Kept feeling like I was suffocating and that lasted for hours. I would doze off and come right awake gasping for air. Really fucked up. Finally they let me set the bed up a little so I was sitting up some and it helped but the suffocating feeling lasted well into the night.
The funny part is how people find out so damn fast. I told no one I was going in for the procedure except my mom and the ex. The ex was my ride and she is the only one I trust with medical power of attorney on me. She knows my wishes and will do what I want. Someone seen her at the hospital, found out it was for me and next thing I knew peeps are showing up to visit and find out what happened. I was still groggy form the meds so I would doze off and wake up to find someone else there to visit. Was like damn, who sent out the smoke signals :giggle:

People love and care about you silly! I'm so sorry you went through all of this. Be extremely careful when you get up as that opening can come loose and you'll lose blood like a m-ffer.

Well, I know where to find you if you are. :giggle::giggle::giggle:
Yeah, I'm not worried. Not poking at him anymore today, if he didn't catch it before now then he won't. So until the next time he pushes my buttons I'm still around. I've lost patience with him though, next time he even replies to something I post, I'm liable to tell him off. So I'll probably be limiting what I post in the Tootle Puffer and Womper threads since he seems to be stalking those.

How good of them. Essential Depot emailed notice that they are raising prices 13% to reflect cost increases in a frenzied, pre FDA run on PG/VG.

Before I buy this "need", I have to look at the demand that all of the other MUCH bigger industries that utilize these. Is output so close to demand that a small blip would cause commodity fever on triglycerides.

Anyway, all 4 gallon glycubes are $39, including palm derived VG (it's a natural triglyceride, soy based is not, and presumably then unnatural)
SHIP20 will take an additional 20% off shipping. Thanks Retailmenot.

So for that that order from China, what exactly does it mean if the tracking says "Your item has been processed through our facility in ISC CHICAGO IL (USPS)"
Does this mean it's actually completely processed by customs and USPS is in control of it? If so, I may have my GB order in my hands this weekend, as this is from last night.

Doc....glad to hear your home already and things went well....damn that was a close one...!
If he would of sent me back to work Monday like he was thinking I probably would of had a heart attack doing that fitness assessment before going back to work. So yeah, it was a close one in a way.

Glad to hear Chop is home. :) Dirty old man or not, it would have been shameful if a friend was gone. Now, try to avoid so much bacon and chitlins.

nononononono, he never said anything about bacon so it is still on the menu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very true Morely. You have to "suck it up" sometimes and eat healthy. Nothing wrong with have some bacon, or whatever you want...:In Small Doses
Look, I'm a female. If I can do it, all yooz guys can too. :bliss:
(all women out there, realize this is just to seal my point)

You do know there is little to no cholesterol in pork, right? Cholesterol is the problem, not fat in general.

Hmm... Bacon is Pork, ergo.. BACON GOOD!

Exactly right. I can't eat cheap ground beef or eggs at all, and if I eat a steak, it has to be VERY lean... but I can eat bacon, sausage, pork chops, all day, without any problems (I can't digest cholesterol, so it just makes me sick). I do drain the fat well, but other than that, there's nothing particularly bad about pork. The usual cautions apply if you have a problem with sodium or nitrates.

Also, Chopdoc.. if you don't eat oats regularly, you should start -- I have the genetic predisposition to high triglycerides and high LDL, but since I don't have any of the other risk factors (obesity, hypertension, or diabetes), my doc just says "Eat some Cheerios or oatmeal every week," and it handles the problem very nicely.

Yup, the salt. On the road, I try to stick to fruits and protein at breakfast. That usually means if in the hotel, salted scrambled eggs and salty bacon or sausage. At the Iron Horse in Milwaukee, their bacon was somehow in 3" discs. I didn't ask, they made for great mini tortilla's for the eggs and hotsauce. It is a bit strange though..

Edit, oops, not Milwaukee. They had good lox. Hrmmm.. well, some hotel breakfast bar.. It's a bit hazy atm... :)

I miss the hell out of eggs. :mad: Always loved cheesy scrambled eggs, and fried eggs with runny yolks, but they just make me sick now. Best I can do is to use the white with just a small dab of the yolk for flavor, and scramble it, and add it to my grits n sausage.

Haha.. I have to send some cash and a big thanks to the nice gas station/bar/casino/diner where I left my mod in South Dakota. Nice clerk there sent it, I got it today. Beating the mail man by a solid 19 hours. And boy was I goofing off...

Does this count as vapemail?

That Chicago facility was a bit of a black hole for me for a few days after saying cleared. I hope you got it, but I wouldn't hold mah breaf is all I'm sayin, pardner.

Hmm.. thinking about that none too friendly cowboy on his horse in Utah. I was heading into rain, and stopped to put on the full face and rain gear. Quite a few of his cattle were standing IN the hairpinned road a few miles back. Dunno where he came from. He was cold and questioning. I returned cold vague answers and made it clear I didn't appreciate his tone or direction. He might have noticed my side carry when I was bent over the saddlebag. I seem to present this way too often. It was a bit strange. But he was a real cowboy, so I won't put him in Cali Arrogant Jerk territory.

I like oats and tried to eat them at times at work. Tonight I am eating the low cholesterol super supreme pizza from Pizza Hut :)

Drat, another one of those days today. No longer desire communicating with anyone. Seems I even bungle that. Yes, I do know it's on me too. As much as it is is not all me, it is not all everyone else either. I'll just be the good person and take it all. Excuse me.
