Damn dude, hang in there, hope you have a long a healthy life(lay off that tasty bacon from now on lololol)Up until the day of the heart attack I had no symptoms.
The day before I felt very good and was out trimming the lawn etc.
The morning of the attack I felt "off". Nothing specific, just "off".
Breathing became difficult in the afternoon and then almost impossible
very quickly. I had no pain of any kind.
Called 911 and off I went.
Fell unconscious on the way to the hospital and woke up 4 days later
in the ICU. They told me they didn't think I was going to make it.
Had a quintuple bypass with 100, 100, 90, 75 and 70% blockages if I
remember correctly. 3 months later they implanted an ICD.
I will always be short of breath now due to scarring on 30% of the
left ventricle but I am doing well.
It was an interesting adventure to say the least.
