Thanks to all of you who emailed me and posted with prayers and advice. I had two 99% blockages and they installed some stents. This was complicated by my being infected with a hospital acquired bronchitis. RATS! That I have not yet gotten over, but it made it real easy to cough when I was told to. STOPPING coughing was another question.
This is the first time I have been able to respond to the wonderful response to my prayer request. I am certain it worked!

thank you, Dear FRiend, for the update. A lot of times on FR we pray for folks, and never hear the outcome.
Sorry you picked up an infection in the hospital. Prayers that will be healed and resolved soon, leaving you with a brand new immunity!

Thank you for your update. Glad you are on the *other side* of this adventure.
Continue to get well, have good lab tests and make your doctors *look good*.
Prayers for you and positive thoughts and a few smiles.
All food you eat should be sent to the Lab, to make sure it's healthy for you.

Wow, that is great that the stints went in okay. Now follow instructions and lets get rid of that cough.
While thanks to God are in order, this is also a good point to praise the miracle of American Healthcare which gets so often lumped into cultural or ACA criticism. Our grandfathers died from the blockages you had and our fathers lived an extra twenty years when the techniques were formalized.

Somehow I missed this thread over the weekend and just seeing it now. Glad to hear that you are now on the mend and that the blockages have been removed. Sounds like a very close call but we are fortunate to live in a time where major strides have been made in the medical field to treat heart disease. You were fortunate to get to a hospital as soon as you did - despite the bumpy ride there.
I've been taking your advice on technology for years and now hopefully you will take some of mine. I have a lot of heart disease in my family and the common denominator in long term mitigation is a change in diet and exercise. So follow your doctor's advice and pay special attention to their dietary recommendations. I won't get into detail as each person's case is different but there will be certain foods and habits that you will be asked to give up and certain foods and habits you should start. You would be wise to take their direction on that so as you will then have many more years to give us technology advice!
Also, read as much as you can on nutrition and diet in general. Many doctors still have old-fashioned ideas on nutrition so ultimately you need to listen to your body.
Get better and look forward to you being back to 100% health as quickly as possible.
To: Swordmaker
What wonderful news (the stents...not the bronchitis)!! Prayers will continue for a speedy recovery. Thanks for the update!
