Hope you're better soon NF.

See if they can upgrade you to an artificial heart. Surely covered in one of your previous links.

BBC must have been reading CUK yesterday.

What will medicine be able to do with hearts? - BBC News

Had 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 home

Get well soon, and look after yourself!

Always a good sign, for my suspected heart attack I realised it wasn't that serious after 8 hours of them only taking observations and when I finally got offered a cup of tea.

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.

aye, i've suddenly goat a sore knee

I'd rather it didn't happen again, but who knows?

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

Boeuf bourguignon in a flaky pastry shell… you might be on to something there

like an EU beef wellington?
could be done with a big reduction on the sauce before baking.
bugger, - hungry now

I suspect warning#2 might mean it's time to ditch the Greggs based diet.

Switch to red wine - good for the heart.

Blimey - Nick has outlasted both doodab and HAB + sockies (we presume) from the original thread. Feeling glum.

Always gets me when I have some reason to dig up that thread and see doodab and HAB in there

you won't hear the shot that fires the round that has your name on it.
no point in dwelling on it.

So last time was a blockage and you where just under 12 stone and only 48! I'm in my mid forties going to have to be a bit careful!

Do they think it will happen again? You seem really calm about it all!!

Anyway get some rest and we'll done for getting the links out, i like to retweet them and pretend i found them.
