My dad just had a heart attack

[Quasar44]

Terrible
He was feeling chest pain all week and both my sister and brother told him not to play tennis and golf and see a doctor
It’s 85 percent blockage in right coronary arteries and they already placed the stints
They expect a full recovery but won’t know more until tomorrow
I can’t see him as I am in Vegas and he is In Phoenix

Oh my...I am so sorry to hear that...if it is any consolation, they can do so much now (Mr. C has serious heart issues) - thinking of you!

They fixed him up in an hour with 2 stints and will be discharged on Sunday

 

[Blues Lifer]

Sorry to hear it. What a nasty year. Be strong.

My brother had 3 stints put in after his heart attack two years ago. Took him a while, but back to normal now. Hope your dad has good outcome and follows doctors advise.

You tell him that he gets a big Prayer and a thanks from over here. Take care of the old guy. But to me, he's probably a spring chicken. I hope he exceeds my age and then some.

 

[Rocko]

That sucks. Here’s to hoping for a speedy recovery

That is good news!

Hope your dad gets better soon.

 

[MarathonMike]

Good news, hope he stays healthy for many years.

 

[BS Filter]

Glad to hear he's okay. I'm 72 and modern medicine has kept me going. Two heart attacks and 5 stints. He's gonna be okay.

 

[Quasar44]

He is 75
We just talked and he sounds normal
It was 3 blockages

Bad day

Stints are a miracle....Your father will likely be feeling much much better by tomorrow. Make sure he takes his platelet medication to prevent clots and he should do quit well.

 

[Thunk]

Sorry to hear it.

Make sure you make yourself available to the family...even if only by phone...this has got to be tough on all of you.

 

[Montrovant]

Hoping for a setback-free recovery.

Side note: aren't they stents, not stints?

I'm so sorry.

My father died a year ago from complications arising from a heart attack. I thought he'd survive but he didn't.

I hope you father is doing better.

 

[Quasar44]

My dad was a former doctor in Michigan
One of the attending doctors actually trained under my dad back in Detroit in the late 90s lol

 

[Quasar44]

I think it was oncology but I have to ask him
