Greetings from Saddleback hospital...

Oh man you're missing a fantastic breakfast too.
Chef's special today, only for restenosis patients :

Your tribe has spoken GeneL, and you have been voted to stay on the island. Be strong, we need you for the steel cut oats contest!

Thanks but, that's a laugh. I'm a bacon and eggs guy, never mind the clogged arteries! But not, so far, this morning!
That is what makes the steel cut oats contest so tough! I do enjoy the bacon, eggs, sausage, and gravy breakfast a lot too. My cooking skills just are not so advanced...

Hang in there, Gene! I think you have made very sharp decisions so far and I trust that you and your cardiologist will work things out for the best.

[Rick-o]

Bah! If they won't feed you, order a pizza! I think they even deliver! :biggrin:

Keep a stiff upper lip, and all that jazz. I'm confident they will patch you up just fine.

[pipiens]

Hang in Gene. Hospitals are dangerous places,

[mrbigstuff]

Agreed with billb, make a bumrush out the door of that place.

After, of course, you have done what you need to do.

We'll get you through this. I mean, really, who else is going to post that pic of Allesandra.

Good news this morning. My BP and heartrate are normal! I'm on a Heparin drip and will be on monitored Coumadin for some time after I go home. Probably soon after the IV Heparin is finished.
I'm desperate for a shower, but no go until I'm off the IV.
So far, things are looking a lot better. Thanks for the positive energy everyone has been sending my way.

I'll post an update after I see the doctor, later this morning.

Awesome news! Can't you find an attractive nurse to give you a sponge bath?

[Paul F.]

Continue the getting-well thing!
