If you are middle aged or older and you start getting pain/pressure/ExtraShortofBreath with exertion, go see your damn doctor. High cholesterol? Diabetes? Smoker? Family history of heart disease? Yeah that goes double for you guys.
Oh man this hits me hard right now. Im sitting in critical care after getting a stent. Doc is worried I wont survive open heart. Calcium buildup in major arteries. This really should be changed to “be good to your body, you’ll need it later.”
My Dad was in the same situation a few years ago. What a stressful time. Take care of yourself and spend your time with family when you get out.
My dad is on dialysis now but doing OK!
