Just take it easy there, didn't your 6 monthly check up show any problems?

Do it now, you may never get another chance

Wow...that's not good news Mr B, but hopefully the medics have caught it in time! And on that subject, it's now 'time' to follow the medic's advice...to the letter! I had a scare a couple of years ago when tests showed I had heart valve failure. Open heart surgery fixed the prob in that I now have a bovine heart valve, but more to the point, I followed medical advice to the letter, which, 15 months later, led to the UK Civil Aviation Authority re-issuing my Class One medical for my commercial pilot's license. The moral is clear!

Good Luck!
Andy

My memory is not working today Stephen, remind me, is this your first heart attack?
At least they must have spotted the cause seeing as they've fitted a stent,..... that should sort you out for a good few years. ;)
You'll possibly find you feel a lot better now than you did before the attack, your blood will be flowing more freely now. :)

Pol.

I just own the forum .... you guys make it great thanks.

Sounds like you were lucky,all the best.

I'm so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I'm saying.

Did you mean bin, as in previous tablets no longer suitable so threw away?
Take it easy, put your feet up, and REST for a while. You've had your warning, so stop running round after people - make them run round after YOU!

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!
