Don't know if I should post here,
just got home from hospital. I had heart attack on the 3rd.
3 blockages
1. 100%
2. 90%
3. 85%
Stinted 2 of 'em, and ballooned 1.
No insurance. Livin' on small pension.
I THINK I'M SCREWED.
Might be back later on.
peace to all

2. Oh NO
I am so sorry to hear this. Just FYI Michael Moore is looking for people to interview about their healthcare nightmares. (or lack of healthcare nightmares)

4. Are you on Medicare?
Medicare part A should cover a lot of it if you are.

Good thoughts on your healing.

5. Yikes!
Hope you get better! Sure would be nice to have universal health care right about now, wouldn't it...

6. Oh God, that's horrible!
I hope you can find some sort of coverage from somewhere- it's ridiculous that a heart patient has to be worrying about bills when they're reocvering from a freaking heart attack. :scared: :hug:

8. Thanks all,
I think i just panicked for a while.
I got hold of myself(a little).
Making phone calls, and such.
I can do this.

11. This is a good place to post when you need a hug
Or to get something off your chest (if you'll excuse the expression). And it sounds like you could use a few hugs. :hug: :hug: :hug:

Best wishes to you - and post anytime you need to talk.
