Yesterday afternoon I had my followup to my heart catheterization.
Looks like Wilbur was right - the doc said that there was NOTHING to report.
When I pressed him about obstructions, he said "a little - nothing to be
concerned about" - so I pressed him harder.
"I had over 50% on the right side (the left being the one with the stents).
How's that look?"
"Lessee - about 30 %."
"Was that from taking my statins all this time?"
"Yup"
"So, by inference, if I keep this up for another few years, there will be
NOTHING?"
"Yes, that's right."
Earlier, the tech who took my vitals and verified what was going on with me
currently had asked if I took my statins at night. I said it was right
before I went to bed.
Good news, as statins work best when you're at rest. I hadn't known, just
did it that way after rinsing my toothbrushing.
So, I celebrated with a bowl of ice cream after dinner :{))
L8R, y'all
Skip, finished with reeving the new lines for the genoa and new running
backstays, about to re-gasket the reefer and frig, and generally ticking off
the minutae remaining to splash...
