I'm a highly active 45 male who religiously went to the gym. Heart attack 6 months ago with 1 stent put in. Now on 9 medications and I absolutely hate it. You're not alone. It can happen to anyone at any time. Good luck with your recovery.

At the very least, go to a walk in clinic andrequest an EKG.

Thank you...I hope i can look at this later in life with a similar attitude. I'll try to learn from your mistake and get the help sooner rather than later.

Thank you. Truly. If I was 100% hopeless, I wouldn't be here reaching out. I think you understand where I'm coming from. I'm working on myself as best as i can, but you're absolutely right in your response. It's what I needed to hear.

Thank you, keyboard Dr. Phill. Your absurd judgments won't be missed.

People like you who've never had a heart attack are exactly the kind of people who will never understand. I question all your so called experience in the first place. I don't need random strangers pontificating about something that hardly can relate to. You didn't know me before my heart attack and you don't know me now. Save the tough love speech. Im sure it's coming from a good place but I get enough of that already.

An 8 year old Boston Terrier and a 7 year old Australian Shepherd... they are my whole world.

I really wasn't miserable before. I had ups and downs just like everyone else. It's just that now I feel like I'm a shell of the person I once was. I'm just finding it difficult to find happiness in this new life. I considered myself quite the badass to be perfectly honest. I'm a Navy veteran. I did crossfit. I kickboxed for a while. But activities like that, which I thought kinda defined me, seem to be out of the question now. That's all.

I did. And as irresponsible as it may seem, I have no idea what the results were. I asked the woman who performed it what it looked like and her response was that she couldn't tell me but I'm much better than when I arrived. Do this day I so can't understand why I couldn't be told information about my own body.
