Our thoughts and prayers are with you Buddy, Just listen to your Docs and after the surgery you will be better then new, ready to lead a life of total decadence.. bj

Does this mean it will be free? seriously I wonder what the bill will be--200,000--more??? less??? I will not see the actuall amount the insurance company pays. I am only worth about 125,000. dead to the wife (I never went too high on life insurance to give her or others ideas)I bet I will not be able to afford any more after this operation.

On cost, my Dad just had a heart procedure where they went up the artery in the leg. They could not find what they were looking for, so they had to go up the other leg. Almost $75K per leg for a total of $149,383.15 My Dad's issue was electrical, not plumbing.

BTW: I be praying for a speedy and complete healing.

My dad had a triple bp a few years ago. The took the veins from his leg. Since the operation he's a new man except that his leg swells up with fluids by the end of the day.

My dad had a 5 way bypass probably 15 years ago now. You'll be fine Rod, surgery has come a long way

Sorry to hear this, Rod, but do take care of things and get back up to speed ASAP. Thinking positive thoughts out here for you.

Also, contrary to what you read on the web, :gs is NOT an acceptable treatment for your condition. :no

My dad had a hole in his heart from bacteria and had a valve replaced with a metal one had to spit his rib caged down the middle to put it in this was over 14 years ago tech is so much better heart surgeries can be fairly simple for good surgeons also exercising may not be the greatest idea right now anything that raises your blood pressure should be avoided unless your doctor advises other wise
I wish you the best of luck even though u won't need it
