Back from my heart attack - GoFuckYourself.com

Tom_PM · 05-30-2007, 10:37 AM

Well, on May 19th I was cleaning my kitchen floor and had massive chest pains, left arm pain and my breathing was painful. It went away and came and went and came, so I called 911 and hit the emergency room.

Had xrays, catscan, MRI scan, plenty of blood drawn to check enzyme levels and all the fun stuff.

Turned out one of the 4 major vessels was blocked. They did angioplasty and inserted a stent. I got out Tuesday the 22nd and have been just taking it easy since then.

PR_Dave and everyone at PimpRoll and AdultElite have been great. I'm sure most havent noticed any change, as the folks at the office stepped right in and have taken care of emails and ICQ support

Extra double special thanks to my LadyB, who I couldnt have pulled through it without the love and support.

I wanted to just let people know I'm semi-back, and to thank everyone for their well wishes. And special thanks to Greenguy for the lovely get well gift

I'm not back to the 9 to 5 grind yet or on ICQ support yet, but hopefully Monday.

Thanks for reading, and pay attention to your health before it forces you!

RuthB · 05-30-2007, 10:38 AM

glad to hear you're on the mend Tom!

CaptainHowdy · 05-30-2007, 10:43 AM

Stay well

!

Humpy Leftnut · 05-30-2007, 10:43 AM

Dude that sucks, happy to hear you're well.. I had "pericarditis" one time when I was 16, felt like an elephant was standing on my chest.. not cool.

Now here's some negative reinforcement for your ass. ;)

tranza · 05-30-2007, 10:47 AM

I'm glad to hear that you are fine and recovering dude.

MikeB · 05-30-2007, 10:47 AM

Mike

Cyndalie · 05-30-2007, 10:48 AM

Good to hear you are on the mend! LadyB will take good care of you I'm sure

Glad to have you back Tom!

Tom_PM · 05-30-2007, 10:48 AM

lol, thats too much meat and eggs right there! I'm sure the sauce is none too healthy either, hehe.

My diet has not been BAD to start with. The heavy smoking and extremely sedentary lifestyle was far far more of contributing factors in my case.

seeric · 05-30-2007, 10:48 AM

i'm due for a heart attack any year now.

no joke.

LadyB · 05-30-2007, 10:50 AM

awww, no thanks needed! I'm just very glad that you've been taking such good care of yourself since this happened.

You'd better.. or else!

hehe

D · 05-30-2007, 10:52 AM

Good to hear you made it through alright.

Just curious, how old are you?

HAPPYPEEKERS · 05-30-2007, 11:33 AM

Welcome Back Tom!!

So glad you are doing well.

Tom_PM · 05-30-2007, 11:36 AM

I'm 42 years old. My father passed away of a massive attack at my age, and my mother had a stroke at 67. My younger sister has been on blood thinners already for some years now. So it's definitely an issue in my family.

However, they did tell me it's not my whole system affected. Looks like I'll probably just be on aspirin and lipitor daily for the foreseeable future. Which is good, because I dont want to be on lots of crazy drugs.

Don't forget all the heart healthy benefits of red wine

UniversalPass Pete · 05-31-2007, 10:29 AM

Sorry to hear about that bro! Bad glad it was not fatal! Your lucky! How old are you anyway?

Tom_PM · 05-31-2007, 10:39 AM

I'm 42 with a family history of heart troubles. Grand parents and great grandparents all lived very long. Parents didnt though, and my siblings have various issues.

We'll see how the old heart holds up once all of the bills start rolling in! (I dont have health insurance).. doh.

Funbrunette · 05-31-2007, 10:41 AM

I had no idea...I'm sorry to hear about your horrible experience however it's good news because you're here to tell us about it. Now take it easy and take care of yourself.

Brujah · 05-31-2007, 10:49 AM

Firehorse · 05-31-2007, 10:56 AM

Although this was a scary experience for sure. The good news is that your back

Tom_PM · 05-31-2007, 11:19 AM

Smoking is history for me. Just packs in the poison, and robs the blood of oxygen. If I hadnt been a smoker for about 30 years, I wouldnt have had the problem.
Plus I could probably lose 40 pounds (at least 30 anyway).

Ravage · 05-31-2007, 11:38 AM

Right on Tom! Glad to see you're doing well.

Nubiles · 05-31-2007, 11:49 AM

NinjaSteve · 05-31-2007, 12:05 PM

I'm glad you're back on the attack.

BradM · 05-31-2007, 01:03 PM

Shit Tom, I am glad you're okay now. Take care of those arteries, they can be real bastards when they clog.

Tom_PM · 05-31-2007, 01:07 PM

Well, the ambulance ride was $605, and the actual surgery was about $3000. Still waiting to see how much the 4 day 3 night hospital stay was, and all of the testing and drugs. fun fun.

Tom, ask to talk to the social worker there. You'd be amazed at how much they'll knock off the bill. When I had my son we had no health insurance and got about 50% in discounts for paying cash to the hospital, my doctor gave me a "professional discount" which was the fee he would charge one of his nurses, the anesthesiologist knocked of several hundred dollars, etc.

There are also grants that the hospital receives to cover uninsured patients - there are forms and such to fill out but it will probably be worth it!

Tom_PM · 05-31-2007, 04:39 PM

Good advice, Peaches, thanks

My cardiologist has been slipping me lots of free Lipitor and all the Plavix I need. Those are the only expensive ones I need.

They did have me sign for medicaid, but I doubt I can get it since I make a decent income. I'll get by for sure.
