way to survive , jared and welcome baCK--
and please take it easy --let me or ramon know in case you need some help

jvc.floyd - 2009-01-24 15:34

WOW! man i'm glad you're ok ,i guess i should stop smoking and drinking and eating fast food cuz at my age i might be headed there too.

jaredscottfla - 2009-01-24 15:54

SmileThks Guys.
And Floyd Def Go easy on the greasy foods,and Ciggi's. I wasn't a real big smoker i did smoke,(about 1/2 -3/4 of a pk a day) Main reason the Dr's think,Yes Ciggi's did contribute but i'm a diabetic,That's a Big time cause,and high Cholestrol. In My case i had No Symptoms,No warning Until The Day it Happened,I was Walking My Dogs and basically collappsed @ re entering the House. Straight To The Er,From There To Cath lab,and From The There OPERATING ROOM. All Wthin 2 Hrs of the onset of pain. Take it sereiously guys and gals 7 hours of heart surgary is no fun. Wink

jvc.floyd - 2009-01-24 16:04

wow ,thats awful dude my dad had a heart attack and i know how limiting life is after one, you basically can't strain yourself at all and no smoking drinking of bad food period ,and my mom has diebetes so i feel for you .

johnnygto - 2009-01-24 16:11

Glad to see you are back, and wish you much improved health in the future. That would be a very scary feeling while it was happening and afterwards (always worried its gonna happen again!) I would think.

Well God bless you Jared and may you be around to post on many more topics!

Johnny

monolithic - 2009-01-24 16:59

Very sorry to hear that, Jared! Frown But still, EXTREMEEEEEMLY glad you're around to tell us what happened!!! Nod Yes

oldskool69 - 2009-01-24 18:00

WOW! Eek Had no idea! Glad you're well man! I need to make it a point to travel the extra milage to drop in on you! Life is too short! Glad your here man...just glad! Nod Yes

And to anyone on here, don't think it can't happen to you even if you are a picture of health...you just never know. We're mostly a bunch of middle aged to old haggards and thing really don't run like they do when we're 18....

kittmaster - 2009-01-24 18:05

Glad you made it through....please take care of yourself.....we are all pulling for you......Smile

thafuzz - 2009-01-24 18:16

Even bigger than Stereo2Go(but not by much Wink), is the fact that you're alive. WOW! I'm so glad you're doing better my friend. I wish you a fast and full recovery. Being a TEXICAN myself, us Hispanics are predisposed to high Cholesterol by both genetics AND diet. We not only fry food, we ReFry it Big Grin God Bless you my brother and glad you're back.

ford93 - 2009-01-24 20:39

Glad you're O.K. bud keep the faith as I will for you Jared!

billpc55 - 2009-01-24 20:44

ok you have to look at it like this.
most people would not have surived what you did.
so you are a survivor. i dont mean to trivialize it at all. it is a extremely horrible thing to have to go through.
this being said you have gone through the worst of it and you are here writing to us.
i am glad you surivived. i am sure you are even more glad.
well i am sure you will continue to get better and soon you will feel better than you have in years.
i have several friends who have gone through similiar things to you and after thier byspass surgeries they all felt better once rehabbed.
hell carol shelby had a heart transplant and he is still driving ac cobras at almost ninety years old.
so yes what you have gone through is extreme but you will be back and better than before in time.
all the best.

smoking is not good man. even if you have to eat those stupid nicotine mints or use one of those daft inhalers its better than smoking. i tell you this as well if you stop smoking that you will be blow aways after two years how different you will feel. after four years you will not understand why you ever smoked. even if you have to chew nicotine gum or mints or use a inhaler. all of those things are miles and miles better than smoking.
ok enough preahcing.

fatdog - 2009-01-25 08:03

Definitely glad to see you still kicking it, Jared. I'm familiar with the seriousness of it all; my dad suffered congestive heart failure, which led to a heart attack. Hopefully, that's not in store for me.

Hang in there and definitely take Ira and Ramon up on their offer to help.

moncheeto - 2009-01-25 08:25

sorry to hear that jared, stuff like that is not easy but with the advancement in the medice field you will feel better in no time and as your doctor says do whatever he has adviced you to do thats to keep you in the path of fast recovery.

Follow that rehab specialists' instructions to the letter! They know what they're talking about. <my wife is an Occupational Therapist, can you tell?>

Anyway, Godspeed to you and your recovery.

Laugh Out Loud No Tunes and No BBxs For Darn Nr 2 weeks I had Boomer Withdrwal! Big Grin
Gotta Take it Kinda Slow,Do The Rehab Thing,and Hopefully Ea Day Will Get A little Stonger. Chat With You all soon,And G-d Bless You Guys and Girls For The Thoughtful Posts and P/m's It Truly Does Mean Alot! Later,Jared

enskanker - 2009-01-30 03:28

JSFLA, I wonder if listening to Lionel Richie was the cause of the heart attack?

redbenjoe - 2009-02-02 09:27

JARED !!!??
we need you to check in with us every few days Smile

also --more important than even us --
you need to get back in shape for next month ///

SPRING BREAK - Fort Lauderdale (YOUR HOOD) !!

you cant expect to burden just me and Ramon with all 3,500 bikini chicks -- your help will be required Laugh Out Loud

get well SOON Big Grin

joe.cool - 2009-02-02 10:08

Hey Ira, I'm sure Jared's fine...he's in good hands-gettin' in shape for next month!

Laugh Out Loud

redbenjoe - 2009-02-02 10:30

Smileright --that ought to get him going --

i never wanted to be first tell him this --but since he is not paying attention, anyway -

well- the reason he never 'got much' at all the former spring breaks --is that he keeps on bringing his 4 dollar goodwill boxes--
he collects these godawful 3 piece minis !! Big Grin
like YUK Laugh Out Loud

and --there's the shameful issue with his choice of apparel ??

he needs to get with Fatdog --and order the new line of official s2g logo outfits-

THEN - perhaps we will hang with him in fort lauderdale Big Grin Smile
