I took myself to the emergency room Tuesday morning thinking I had an upper respiratory infection. It felt like my lungs was about to explode. Hurt to breathe, shortness of breath and pain going down both arms. Worst pain ever!!! After some blood work and two nitro pills they determined that I was having a full blown heart attack. I still can’t believe it. I’m only 52, not overweight but I do smoke. They took me to Tulsa and at midnight I was in surgery. I ended up having two of my main arteries that supplied my heart valve’s with 90% blockages. I’ve never been poked more times in my life, and I absolutely hate needles. So the good news is that I’m going to be fine plus a reason to quit smoking.Thanks so much to my Oklahoma shooter’s family.</blockquote>
