Jimbalaya Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Thanks for the update Tom........oh, Genny Cream Ale never hurt me, 'cept that first time Guido ps.......Don, do good and don't chase nurses.........until after your bionic implant Just got off the phone with Don Incardona from his hospital bed... Here's his report: Angiogram was ok... nothing worse than 30% blocked... So that doesn't explain why heart is functioning at such a low level... Next step is to replace his pacemaker with a fancy dandy one that includes an automatic defib... which I'm sure will be a SHOCKING experience for him... hopefully, that will get his heart at least more regular if not stronger... that will happen tomorrow... defib pacemaker is even blue tooth and reports to the doctor on its own... don't know what happens if it gets a wrong number... knowing Don, it'll probably autodial a sex line... that would BOOST his spirits... If all goes well, he'll go home Friday and be as ornery as ever ... wish I could be there to see the look on his face first time he gets zapped when walking along those florida beaches... See what Genny Cream Ale will do to you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomPeashey Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Just got off the phone with our "weak" friend... he now has a fancy defib pacemaker... and hopefully will be home tomorrow evening (Friday). This pacemaker is supporting both ventricles where the old one just did one... they hope that will make him stronger and improve heart function. They had to back off of the anesthesia/pain meds as he had trouble breathing... so he did have some discomfort... also when they test the defib they usually put you under again for a couple of minutes and they couldn't do that - so he now knows what it will feel like if it goes off... He's NOT looking forward to that happening again... :-( several asked for an address Don and Bonnie Incardona 464 Dawn Drive N. Ft. Myers, FL 33903 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
