    Also, the correct reply to ANY question is:

    "I want to speak to a representative from the United States Embassy.".....

    Best wishes now and then. Nowadays they can do up to 3 or 4 stents at one time. Along with the statin drugs to control bad cholesterol levels, long term prognosis is much better. Had my Father been on statins, he would probably lived much longer. My cholesterol was always high. No longer. I still eat about the same as always. I often wonder if my last thought would be, “Wish I wouldn’t have eaten so much bacon”, Or “ Wish I’d eaten more bacon”. Probably the latter. Heavy meals Put a strain on the heart. Hardest job it has is digesting food.

    That's an idea. Maybe I should call ICE to see if Nurse Ratched is really human?

    Okay, I'll say it.........."Yep!"

    I noticed you were over on his radio rant thread.

    I imagine you now have sufficient information to draw your own conclusion.

I says ok what does this shorty pay. He says well you have to stay there tonight then come back tomorrow. I says still ok but price doubles. He says no problem. I hangs up and says #### that was way too easy hmmmm

    I have also learned that when I get to Richmond I will also be seen by a neurologist the same day. I was told just 24 hours afterward and back home. We will see?

    So a little roto rooter work. They can do good things with that procedure. Usually that is followed by stents.
    Sure they told you all about that. Keep a positive mind that it works, bypass really is hard on the body, and it generally sux.
