Best of luck to you, Tom Kelly
In addition to this find a good nutritionist. Make three appointments: initial, 60-days, and one-year out. Make those dietary changes! Managing ones diabetes is 3/4 of the cardiac/vascular battle.

Take your significant other with you to all appointments (for the first year). Patients mistake, mishear, and forget so much. Seriously.

If cardiac rehab is indicated - take full advantage of it as well.

I found that improper diet and exercise led to my cardiac episode - which was preventable. Implementing those changes reversed my CAD (at least numbers wise) in less than six-months.

In choosing your medical professionals - talk to the staff on the floor the facility you were at. Ask them who they would want to manage their health/disease/condition. Seriously.

Good luck and Gods blessing to you and yours. Because walruses are endangered...
