WOO HOO!! YIPPEE!! HURRAH!!!!!!
Back in 2020 my heart disease made it so I couldn't walk from the car to the door of the grocery store without stopping to catch my breath. A heart cath procedure at CAMC showed a partial blockage in a couple of the arteries in my heart. I was deadly allergic to all the standard medications and a stent was out of the question for me. The Cardiologist at the VA in Beckley told me to research the diet I adopted which is the basis of my Heart Healthy Cooking page. He said it was my only hope. It has been four years.
Yesterday I had a nuclear stress test on my heart. The results are in. Drum roll please............ My heart showed no signs of blockages or problems. It was normal. In fact, it was normal for a very healthy and active person less than my actual age. Not only can I walk to the door of the grocery store, but I can also run with the grandkids.
