ok guys im back and alive.

heres the deeleo. i have had tachycardio since i was a teen. i had an attack friday night that lasted for over 3 hours. i got scared and called 919. the short vesrsion is: they said i had a major heart attack, sustained major heart damage, and had at least one blocked artery that needed to be repaired. my heavy lifting days are over. i was in ICU all weekend on blood thinners until i was transferred to WMH for the cardiac cath and shint/s to be placed to free my clogged arteries. but in true sniffy fasion when the cath was done i had 0 blockage, no heart damage, and the doc said my heart is perfect with the exceptiopn of the tachycardio (electrical problem) which will be repaired ina few weeks.

all my blood work (with the exception of the elevated cardiac enzymes from the tachycardio) came back excellent. cholesterol 176, triglycerides 126. my liver and kidney #s were sluightly elevated but that is normal for someone who lifts heavy regularly.

i am not taking sides on the steroid debate but the cardiologist (a well respected cardiologist) who first saw me told me the juice caused my high cholestrol that had clogged my arteries and led to my heart attack. guess he aint as smart as he thought he was. let me rephrase, cholesterol 176, triglecerides 126, and 0% blockages in any arteries surrouinding the heart.

anyway ill be lifting light for the next couple of months til i get my procedure done and heal up from that. after that its on again. i think the few months off from the ponding will do my body good and ill be completely fresh for my wpo push next year. i am devoting the rest of ths year to leaning out even more (shooting for 260) and getting myself back in top cardio shape.

this is the short vesrsion of the story, the long version will be posted in the near future.

thanks for all the phone calls, pms and prayers.
