They ran a ultra-sound and an MRI and it appeared to them that permament damage was minimal, but another test in 60/90 days would be more conclusive. The ambulance was there within 3 minutes and they began the process of unblocking the artery and stabilizing before they even moved off.

Saturday morning I was just finishing my morning bike ride when I had a bad heart attack. Plaque got loose and blocked one artery completely. It was a bit touch and go for a while. But thankfully the quick thinking of my wife and some smart medics got me sorted, and now I have a shiny new stent in one of my arteries. (the other two were shiny clean). My diet was good, my chlorestorol levels were fine, a previous stress test showed up nothing, I run up several flights of stairs etc. I'm now back home getting adjusted to a little more careful eating and exercising regime. But if you're of a certain age and haven't had a good check over recently I would urge you to do so. From personal experience the alternative is really not very pleasant!

Its funny I have always told my staff that it should be your health first, then your family and THEN work. But sometime work gets the best of us and you flip it around. But you cant do it year after year and not pay the price at some point. Most of the guys on this board are VERY successful and have worked hard to own their 997. Make sure you enjoy it as much as you can and make your health your top priority. In fact after my first round of Chemo i was too weak to drive. I could not wait to get back out in my car. I am glad to say that was 6 month's ago and now i pretty much drive it every day.
