This one is apparently "non-STEMI" which is, I believe, a good thing - not good in itself, but better than one that is STEMI like the last one.
And given that last time they had me straight in and sorted out within thirty minutes of arriving at the hospital, whereas this time they've left me all day (and now until tomorrow at the earliest), I'm assuming it definitely isn't as bad
It turned out I only had blood pressure that could inflate a tyre. Lucky escape. If only I were only 12 stone that would be nice.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Originally posted by NickFitz View PostHad a good run of seven years and about two days, but another heart attack apparently struck on Thursday. In my usual observant manner, I didn't find out until Sunday, when I went to the hospital complaining of shortness of breath and they told me what was going on So this lot comes from the ward where I'm waiting for an angiogram, after which they'll hopefully let me get homeHis heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...Comment
