Good luck to everyone going through cardiac problems. I have to see some type of electrical cardiologist specialist in 3 weeks. My loop monitor is reporting that my heart rate drastically increases occasionally and they don't know why. I know it's not equal to a bypass but may still require surgery.
To the family members, keep up the support. I'd be lost without my SO. I know he's as stressed as I am so y'all keep coming here and talking. Y'all need support too if you expect to be there for your SO.

Yes, support is critical for a patient on all fronts.
Hope everything works out well for you and definitely keep us updated!

He needs a little step to get up to the bed. You can buy one or do what I did when my elderly cat, Sophie. I wrapped a remnant piece of carpet around a box about the size of a step in which I placed a brick to give it weight and make it stable.

I had to place her on the step and then up on the bed a few times and she got the idea!

Tried that....no go... Wish I could get a pic of him perched like a cat, or bird...on the very narrow upper edge of this Victorian loveseat I have. So funny...he jumps up there to get a better view out the window. He jumps down as soon as I catch him there... Proof that he can jump up when he wants to.

Tomorrow my man is scheduled for implant of a pacemaker/defibrillator. I will be so relieved to know he has some protection because as of right now, he has no defenses, except for his meds.


@Bea-FL and @WhiteHighlights Thinking of you as well as we are more or less traveling the same road and praying that our men will have successful procedures and recover quickly with a renewed sense of good health!

So not only hubs has to have a bypass he need two of them and unfortunately, because of where the blockages are, robotic surgery is not possible. So it will be old-fashioned cut-through-the-sternum surgery and 3 months inactivity and off work .

Isn't it wonderful that there are tests to discover these blockages! My goodness, between you and @Flowersoul and @Anise and @WhiteHighlights and all our good friends on ECF I've got a lot of praying to add to my list!!

While I'm sure it's an en"grossing" tale that would hold most Readers Captive, I would probably opt for the Cliff Notes Version at the maximum ..

But we almost all have been through it, so why repeat the story? The medical industry has irrevocably convinced the insurance industry that it is cost-effective multiple times over, so how can we disagree? I am convinced that the doctors who do the scope and clip are decidedly odd, but everyone has their own niche in life.
