Hope you weren't in your 50s and 50 lbs. overweight.

Big stomach on the man. Typical candidate for heart attack.

No screening done at all. No cholesterol, no tests, just called in the RX.

What a shame. There is the last picture taken of the man in his tux at his daughter's wedding.

No, around 40, and in fairly good shape physically. Had a series of muscle sprains related to trying to stay in shape in the same manner that I did when I was 30. I guess I was fairly lucky, or at least in the right group for using Vioxx. Too bad the full information wasn't out before the drug was approved - they'd have been more careful in prescribing it. In retrospect, it seems that doctors looked at Vioxx as the new asparin.
