After enjoying the fruits of your labors, we all need a place to chill. This is that place. Totally senseless irrelevant banter encouraged.

And here I thought it was your liver that would give out. Hope you are doing better. Maybe lay off the cheddar and meatloaf.

Well it is official. I’m apparently part of the population that doesn’t get to collect social security benefits.

They gave me this great informative handout.

Sorry to read this, Smokes! :frown:

I have an extensive recorded medical history involving horrible back problems including spinal surgery and TWO Massive Heart Attacks with EF's from 35% to 32% (I have ECHO this Friday to see if EF improved with the CTO PCI I had in September) and I didn't qualify for Social Security Disability Insurance, somehow... :facepalm: :frown:

I appealed it. I was denied. I appealed the denial with a Social Security Attorney (A local Attorney who is also the city prosecutor where I lived, SWAT member, Reserve Sheriff...etc. Lots of local pull). I was denied :facepalm:

Some people fake it and get it...astounding!

All the very best, Smokes!

I would never presume to tell anyone what to do, especially medically.

I received a message from my Cardiology nurse this AM relating to the ECHO I had Friday that was testing the results of the CTO PCI I had done in mid-September.

"I received your ultrasound results today which shows the strength of your heart has improved from 25-30% to 45%. Normal strength of the heart is > 50%. Your heart is still a little bit weak, but greatly improved from previous. We will continue your current medications as is. No need for defibrillator at this time."

CTO (Chronic Total Occlusion), PCI (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention).

Dr. Taishi Hirai - University of Missouri, Cardiology. Dr. Hirai mentored under Dr. J. Aaron Grantham. After my first failed CTO PCI (bumped up against radiation exposure limits), also in September, Dr. Hirai called in Dr. J. Aaron Grantham and they both worked 4 or 5 hours on me.

All the very best to you, smokes!

Regards,
WHAB

So latest update is that I got a pacemaker / defibrillator device and could get shocked at any time to keep my heart working but it looks like catastrophic cardiac events although still a definite possibility are likely not to render me deceased as I now am equipped with a battery backup.

glad to hear they could help you some.
so your a borg now ?
My therapist says I am a habitual liar and an attention seeker, therefore nothing I say/write is true and under no circumstances should I be believed nor held accountable for anything I say. all photo's are paintings

People are born with the instinct to fight against their own death, to struggle with their last breath against even the most unavoidable and uncompromising ends.

Had my CTO PCI not delivered the results it did my Dr. was going to recommend a defibrillator.

I'm still a little shocked by the results of the procedure according to the ECHO follow-up. I don't feel the improvement indicated :winky:

All the very best to you, Smokes 2.0 :winky:

Sincerely,
WHAB
