"Heart Of The Matter"

For quite a while now I have been having chest pains and shortness of breath which I assumed was due to my COPD. Well last week they did a Cardiac catheter and discovered that one of my arteries was 90% blocked and another was about 70%. The installed two Titanium stents and put me on Plavix (anticoagulant) and 325mg aspirin. The doctor told me that I was a heart attack waiting to happen. Now with the new drugs every time I get a tiny cut it Bleeds like hell. Kinda freaks me out knowing I have metal in my arteries.
