I was really lucky - at the age of 47, had heart attack while on a treadmill test. Coded twice in the ambulance. Ever thankful to the EMTs who defibbed me. That was in 1992. Actually, it wasn’t “luck” - I figure the good Lord still had work for me here, and I’ve tried to live the life that He gave me doing what He would have me do.
Blessings to you. It is true what you have said. CPR is a bridge to treatment. Time to defibrillation is the single most important determinant to survival and you are living proof.
Sounds like your stress test was definitively positive though.
