No open heart surgery on this ol man!! Saw the cardiologist today and he gave me the no brainer option of stents! So instead of being cracked open like a lobster and 3 months recovery, one overnight stay in hospital and about a 3 day recovery time.... What a burden lifted off of my mind....

I think he agreed to have his arteries bored .30 over, but refused to have them stroked, for obvious reasons.
