Had a heart attack first thing Monday morning, they let me out Friday evening, came as helluva shock as I had considered myself to be fairly healthy, but hopefully with a shedful of medication and a few lifestyle changes I should recover okay. I'm only 49

Large blood clot in one of the main arteries, which they managed to dissolve and they put in a stent to open up the artery.

Gordon, so sorry to hear about your heart attack & hope you feel much better soon. I had a suspected heart attack a few years ago & I now do exactly what my doctor tells me I should do.
