I hope you do well. The surgery you are talking about is a lot less tramatic to your old body:D I hope you do well enough to make the Blottor in the French Quarter.

Just got back home from the hospital.......... Swatsurgeon gave me some excellent follow up info on another medical trial using basically the same technique......... I took Oschners required tests for eligibility,but my cardiologist now has decided to do my angiogram first and do the stint work I need before he recommends me for the trial(2 weeks from now)...... I should receive my answer back from them(I hope)within a few weeks after the angiogram is finished and his paper work being submitted...... I've made up my mind that if I am rejected,I'm not totally sure I'll go with the "open heart option" right away.... I've been told by my primary that he has to put down my physical condition is at best "Fair" and advised me to consider waiting to see if it gets worse....So here is my up to date feedback,and thanks again to all those that commented and give me encouragement,you probably don't realize how much it means to me that you people do care enough to post those kind thoughts......;) :D :cool:

Hang Tough
 
The cardio vascular guys always use to tell us Ortho guys how the heart was the most important organ in the body. We always told them that without the bones the heart would be useless. All the heart was good for was pumping blood to the bones!
Good luck and a speedy recovery.
