Jolana,
May God's grace and peace be with you all.

I'm so sorry to hear about your BIL. Hopefully he got treatment in time and will be just fine. My prayers are with you.

If you think you are having a heart attack, take an aspirin or 2 immediatly. It can give you the extra minutes you need to get help.
I have a leaky heart and (used to have to carry nitro glycrin) always keep baby aspirin I can chew with me just in case.

Thank y'all so much
They seem to think he will be alright, they haven't done any tests that I know of but it was difficult getting info from SIL. She said he came home day before yesterday and said he must be having reflux. SIL called his Dr and they said go to Roundrock emergency. When they got to the hospital he said no, I fine take me home and got upset and kept saying he was better
So after he got home he just sat in his chair for awhile and then went to bed and slept til 10:30 the next morning
(never sleeps past 6) got up ate, took a shower and said he was fine, felt much, much better.
Then he told SIL, let's go to the movies, before the got to the building out the car his chest was hurting and he was having difficulty breathing.
This time SIL got him in the car and took him to the hospital and demanded he go in and went in to get someone.
Sure enough he was having a heart attack
They are suppposed to find out why today, but seem to think all will be well.
My MIL could use some prayers too, this is her oldest and her favorite also
Thanks again y'all
jolana

I'll add your MIL to my prayers.

Let us know what you find out.

I'm glad he got the help he needed. You are all in my prayers!PJ

Hope things are better now. Prayers and well wishes your way!

Oh, Jolana, I guess I missed this earlier, or maybe I didn't even come here yet today. Anyway, my heart and prayers go out to your family.

Here's the update, they are going to do the tests tomorrow, I think because the Drs were off today. He is still in ICU but we got to visit a pretty long time.
They are keeping him lightly sedated and he looks good and I started feeling better about everything when he called me a twerp.
Thanks again to everyone

We'll keep him and your family in our prayers. Glad to hear he is in the hospital getting some good care. He will just have to do what the doctor's tell him to get better. I hope all goes well with the tests.

We'll keep everyone in our prayers, and also in our happy thoughts. Two separate things, sometimes. Best Wishes!

I'm sorry I didn't see this till just now. Glad to hear good reports and praying for you, your BIL and the whole family.

Blessings!

Twerp!TSk TSk! You have my permission to insult him back as soon as he's discharged! PJ

That's good news, Jolana. I hope he continues this improvement.

Sally

I just got back from Round Rock, they did the angioplasty and implanted a stent.
He had 90% blockage in one artery. Doing well, they are a little concerned with the bleeding in an area but assured us that it is fairly common
Need to get outside and do some stuff before it is time to cook dinner
Thanks again for all of the prayers and good thoughts
jolana

I'm glad it went well.

I'll keep him in my prayers for a full recovery.

Ok, the good news is that will help temporarily. The bad news is, it is a temporary measure.

In all likelihood, there will a by-pass in his future, stint or not.

Check out the info on stints and prepare.

Hope it goes ok in the long run.

Well late as usual. You and your DH's family are all in my prayers.
Hope its a bit better now jolana.

Dena

That sounds like great news Jolana. Modern medicine is a great thing, even if by-pass is needed it's a common procedure now.

((hugs for u&yours))
