Been having chest pains(I'm a hard headded dago) and last saturday the wife finnaly said get ready going to the hospital and they slapped patches all over me and put a monitor on,kept taking blood and I asked your not selling it are you :lol:

Kept me all night and my dr. came in sunday and I didn't do to good on the stress test and have some blockage which I don't understand there talk but,the wife knows and got to have a roto ruter done and see if that helps and if not said go from there.

Funny part is I don't smoke or drink and both the wife and I are diebetics and she makes sure that we eat right but when I'm on the road I never eat right or eat what I should :eek:

My dad had heart problems but he was 82 and smoked so I can't figure it out.

I know I'm not suppose to worry about it and if I can work on the cars I have no time to think about it.

Go in on June 5th and told them have me road ready by July 4th got to be in Carlisle,PA.

Sorry to hear about that Bill. My father had angina and diabetes so I've had to watch for both and so far so it hasn't been a problem, despite my extra weight. :jester: I hope all goes well for you and that we'll see you in Carlisle.

good luck with both. :thumbsup: When the wife was having her trouble a few years back, they couldn't find anything. The Doc told her to listen to her body(which she does anyway) and one more trip to the ER and they did the catherazation, and she got to go for a helicopter ride.
