I'm home! The news is good. The doc says that the stents look good and the blood flow looks good so there was nothing to do except take a look and plug the artery up where he inserted the catheter. I am on restricted activity for 48 hours - no lifting, too much walking, etc. So I'll be back in the gym next Monday..... I think Dr Gojer is great. Not only is he an excellent doctor but has a great sense of humor as well. I can be a smartass and he responds without missing a beat. He walks into the cath lab after I had been prepped. And the exchange went something like this:
Me: How do you feel Doc? I want you at the top of your game if we're gonna do this!
Doc: I feel good but I forgot to take my seizure medication.
Me: That's a problem!
Doc: Don't worry, I had some Jack Daniels to calm my nerves.
Me: Give me a shot if you have any left. :o)
We both have a good chuckle and the banter stops as the doc goes to work. Love this guy - my kind of doctor!
Too bad the insurance company opted to force this procedure rather than a CT Scan. Oh well...
