    Exactly! Sometimes a heart attack can be so mild, one doesn't even realize it. Prevenative care seems to be obselete, which disgusts me to no end.

    Heaven forbid if you have insurance that makes you wait for approval for procedures...I have very little faith in medicine anymore. I have a funny story for you WW; I'm 5'4 and roughly 130 lbs, my doctor's nurse called me because my cholesteral was boderline high. She told me if I lost 10 lbs., I would be fine. [insert fake laughter here]-:thud:
