I was diagnosed 11 yrs ago. I've been through many different stages. At this point in my life, i do my best to be grateful for each day. Right now I'm relatively healthy, but it's been a long hard road to get here. ;)
Thank you, Niki. I'm on the long, hard road. Saw Cardiologist today and got pretty down. Not happy with prescription for statins after researching use in women. Side effects are very scary.
Less able to do my housework, eat better, work at making good memories for my grands and great grands
While I was diligent before the stent in 1997, I am much more aware of how insidious atherosclerosis and CAD really are. Still maintain healthy eating active living principles.
Slowed me down a bit.
