Broken hearted....

[roverfj1200]

Just to let the people here know that may like to know..

On Friday the 13th (yes thats right) I was admitted to hospital after I suffered a heart attack.

I was at the time under investigation for chest pains and as such was on meds that reduced the severity of the attack. After the weekend in hospital on the Monday morning I had a angiography and a angioplasty and was sent home Tuesday afternoon. I will make a full recovery. I had a attack in 2008 as well and have had a restriction in my heart since then the angioplasty I have just had has repaired that damage and as such I will be able to corner twice as fast and out ride you all.

The moral to the story here is I was dam lucky. I stop smoking in 2008 but the damage was done......As Mr T would say Stop smoking you Foools...

So looking forward to getting back on the bike (Motor and Push) in the next few weeks. Have 2 weeks off work to rest up then back to the grind stone.

Cheers

Bloody hell. Glad u will make a full recovery. I think we get to an age when we have to pay for the sins of our youth. I had never been in a hospital until last year, and now I seem to be a regular visitor. Dont get any faster, I had trouble keeping up last time

Wow...I read "Broken hearted" and can relate...i thought, "Ahhh...he'll get over it."  You had the kind that REALLY gets your attention!  Glad you're on the mend!

Hey!  Get better quick.  As I recall, you don't need to bet any faster. 
BTW  I still owe you a beer or two.

You watch boy I may have to ride up there and have a nice cup of tea with you.

6 months into the year, and we've had 2 bike prangs and now a heart attack!!! What's going on???
Take it easy Richard, and buy a lotto ticket.
I thought a heart attack is supposed to slow you down, not make you quicker, I couldn't keep track of you before, haven't got a hope in hell now.

Count me in on that challenge. Take it easy for a while mate and get yourself fit for next year's Rally. Best regards, Pete.

Darran had this one nailed, any excuse not to go for a ride in the rain!

Nah, you'll be good to go soon Richard, these cardiac docs certainly know their business and, *gulp* you'll be even harder to keep up with now.

[Chromaxe]

Goes without saying, take care Richard and bring it back to full throttle gradually, like the experts are no doubt advising.

I had to read it three times. I thought you were taking the piss...

I look forward to the odd photo from your recovery rides...
