richsantaclaus Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Just out of the hospital since Tue - went in to get more stints (have 6 in my heart now) but had a major anaphylactic reaction that almost killed me. Have to see an allergy specialist next week so the heart doc and him can decide a treatment to stop the reaction when the heart doc goes in and puts more stints.

Al Oregon Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 It's good that the doctors are talking. A lot of people don't make sure they do. Best wishes on the procedures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richsantaclaus Posted November 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 update - since my blood pressure wouldn't stay at an acceptable level, the procedure went badly. Now I have to go to Scripps in La Jolla Ca and do it all over again - yep, maybe the 3rd time will be a charm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
