I have had a memorable Nov. & Dec. Spent 4 days in the ICU at Hartford Hospital because of a heart attack. Heart Attack? WTF. I'm the guy that rides a bicycle 100 mi. a week and has never taken meds or spent an overnight in a hospital. Anyway, it turns out there is nothing wrong with my heart and nothing wrong with my arteries. The Cardiologist says I had a "Charlie Horse" in an artery. So they sent me home with meds and told me to go back to the bicycle and my Kung Fu lessons. Then a couple weeks later I had a massive allergic reaction to the meds. Ultimately, they took me off of all but aspirin and two meds. And those are just to minimize the potential for spasming. So, I'm back to my life of booze and other forms of debauchery. Think I'll go finish that cognac in the kitchen. Have a good holiday.
