In reply to the discussion: The Wizard hath spoken. [View all]DFW
(60,637 posts)33. Thanks, all. But I'm not out of the woods yet.
Final report went something like this:
Follow up with a hospital cardiologist. Not quite as rosy as wished. I indeed was not blocked up enough to need another stent. However, I am still showing far too many supplemental heartbeats to be healthy. Too many supplemental heartbeats overstrain the heart muscle, and lead to heart failure. What they think will probably be needed will be what is called a heart ablation, unless some combination of medicines will alleviate the symptoms. Follow up talks next week.
Still, it was "call us Monday," and not "bring a suitcase, you're not going anywhere!"
