Holy shit brother. Glad you are OK. Thank you for sharing. Amazing story.It seemed like it was taking forever but was likely seconds or minutes.. They got the readout, and said "you are having a massive heart attack sir, we're going to give you a clot busting medication that will break up the clot in your heart but you need to be aware the risks from the drug are stroke, and death". I asked if there was something different they could use and they said no. I then said my wife should be on the way can we please wait until she's here just in case it goes wrong - i atleast wanted the chance to tell her and my kids i love them...and the doctor said absolutely not, we are not waiting!
To hear " you are having a massive heart attack sir" was intense, I expected to maybe hear "your having a heart attack, but the words massive heart attack" was surreal and shocking.
But just as I was accepting that statement, to then hear the drug we're about to give you could cause a stroke or death firmly grounded the idea that I might not make it through this..
What all will you do differently now in terms of permanent lifestyle changes?
