Heres another update.

I had my cardiac cath yesterday and they found 2 occlusions of my caronary arteries. One was very small and was easily eliminated with a balloon angioplasty. The other one, which supplied blood to the anterior portions of my heart was 80 % occluded and I had a stent placed.

I am glad that I had it done now. Thanks to all of you for your advise.

I am very tired today.....my hgb was only 8.8 this morning. But I am sure that things will start looking better now.

Thanks again!
