Hi. Just had a wisdom tooth out, give me PCI procedures - 5 stents total and a Medtronic CRT-D anyday! Due for 6 month check soon, all going well. At 62 and still working that's OK with me!

Looking back it is surprising how quickly one adapts to having a PM as a friend. At 6 months According to the literature my heart will have positively remodelled about as much as it will, though so far my recovery from a serious anterior MI 7 years ago still continues. I was told I would not be able to fell walk again and hills would always be a problem. Now fells ok though have to get breath on steep hills, no problem walking 15 miles and I can run a decent distance again.

For the Uk members if there is anyone interested in forming a UK charity cricket team? I live near Kendal I'm South Lakes but would
even travel to the US for a game of cricket!

Good luck to you all and rock on PM club!

Glyn

Having wisdom teeth out as an adult is nasty!!

Sounds like you are thriving with your pm, that's great to hear.
