Dooder1 Posted March 23, 2013 #1 Posted March 23, 2013 Going back for 3rd time in 3 months 1st time heart attack with stent placed, 2nd time for another stent and now after a stress test which wasn't good they are gonna put in another stent and check the ones already placed. Its not a bad procedure it just sucks laying flat on your back for up to 8 hrs till the main artery they go through to get to your heart clots up. Hopefully in just over night thing. Going in on the 3rd of April hopefully home by the weekend for my and my great nephews birthday party John
muffinman Posted March 23, 2013 #3 Posted March 23, 2013 John you need. to get over that nurse lol seriously take it easy and heal quickly Jeff
RockinRobin Posted March 24, 2013 #5 Posted March 24, 2013 Speaking from experience (i have 7 stents) ask your dr if they can do it through your wrist. Last time i had it done they did it that way and man you can move around right after. Good luck.

Dooder1 Posted April 1, 2013 Author #17 Posted April 1, 2013 Well Im off to the hospital in the morning for my heart surgery. Doc called they moved it to Monday from Wed. I asked if he could do it though my arm and he said he could. So if no complications hopefully I will be home tomorrow night. John

Dooder1 Posted April 2, 2013 Author #21 Posted April 2, 2013 Back home everything went well. Going through the arm was a much better procedure. I was awake and got to watch what they did. Doc says Im good to go, only restriction I have is cant lift more than 10 pounds for a week. John
