I'm glad that you took the advice and didn't try to shed it off as something minor. I pray for you and your family for a full recovery. GOD bless the membership here, so many knowledgeable people here from every walk of life, I am humbled to be a part of such a great community.

Really glad to hear this Para.

I know what you mean about docs. I try to avoid mine, but sometimes I have to see him and listen to him.

Take care of yourself.

Damn, Para! I was busy with classes the past few days and just now getting caught up. So glad you have cheated the reaper and are on the mend. The repartee would not be the same without you. Our best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Get well soon!

With all due respect......Jesus Lord, you're a stubborn SOB even for a guy. I really enjoyed your writing and hope like hell to be reading more many years from now. I'm glad you're feeling like a new man. Heal up, kick ass, and take good care of yourself.

Glad you are OK Para, that shit is serious. I lost my 46 year old nephew about a year ago because he would not go to the doctor about weakness and chest pain, you did good listening to sjtill.


Just another day in paradise.

Hi Para, I'm glad to see you are doing well. I was wondering just yesterday about you, you hadn't been posting, so I assumed something was up.

I'm so glad you caught it in time, and I pray for your recovery.

It's definitely an eye opener, a life changer, to have come through that and have a new life of health and wellness ahead of you.

If you don't mind, I'll share my story, and I'll keep it as brief as possible. 10 years ago I was taking a routine physical at my family doc, and because I was over 50 years of age he gave me a EKG. He came back in frowning and said something didn't look right on it, so he sent me to see the cardiologist. I went with the paper strip EKG in hand, the Cardiologist said the EKG was looking fine, so he gave me another. It was fine too, he said. However, since I was over 50, he wanted me to take a nuclear scan and stress test. I failed it, and then went to the cath lab. When I woke up, he said my Widow Maker was 80% clogged so he put a Stent in me. He said I was basically a walking dead man, sooner or later, a walking fatal heart attack. I'm thankful to still be here, and I'm thankful I never had a heart attack.

Thank you for providing this wonderful forum, and all that you do to keep it running ship shape.

I probably don't need to say this, but just follow the Cardiologists suggestions. Eat right, exercise, make all your appointments as scheduled. And make sure your wife gets checked out too, and if she needs anything then modern medicine can have at it.

The totally awesome and wonderful thing is that we now have the best medical care and technology ever. Things that were not curable not too many years ago are so easily taken care of now, with rapid and easy recovery, that in years past would have killed us. Modern Medical Technology is amazing.

And finally I want to tell you that you have a gift for writing. I love reading your work, you are blessed with talent and have worked to develop it.

May God Bless you and keep you, and your Wife as well.

Why, oh why, then, did I not go to the doctor? The reason is that in my current circumstances, I had no insurance and since I felt doomed, I saw no reason to saddle my widow with obscenely large medical bills.


Para, and everyone else, money is not a problem when it comes to your health.

Shootings, stabbings, car wrecks, falls, overdoses, etc., for 30 years I saw the indigent crowd of the aforementioned admitted and treated at the Hospital. Sure there is a bill and yes I am also sure this indigent group never paid a dime.

But we, the good members of this Forum, will pay our medical bills..a little at a time if need be, but we will pay for the treatment. But we have to make it to the hospital to be treated!

Glad your better. A lesson for us all to listen to our bodies.

Para, I'm so glad that you are on the mend. I'm glad that you will be fighting the good fight in these crazy times.

I felt something wasn't quite right, but I just didn't know what, couldn't place it.

You will be in my prayers.
