November 11 was the luckiest day of your life so far! I am so glad to hear you were able to drive to a hospital. Continued speedy recovery to you.
Thanks for the compliment,
A healthcare provider

On Nov. 11th I pulled into Butte, Montana on the last leg of a very long loop around the casinos of the southwest, midwest, and upper midwest then back into the northwest. This trip usually takes about two months. I checked into my usual hotel. When I went to bed I felt some chest pain but didn't think anything of it. The room started getting to warm so I got up to turn the heater down. I got dizzy and started throwing up. I fell back on the bed in a cold sweat and heart palpitating. I lay there for a few minutes waiting for it to stop but it wouldn't. I got to make a move I thought. I got up, quickly dressed then went down to the car and GPS'd my way to the emergency room of St. James Hospital. I now have two stents in my heart and spent several days in the ICU. I couldn't believe I had to learn how to walk all over again. I've made a lot of progress since then. I was released from the hospital on Thanksgiving Day.
Walking is part my physical therapy. So I'm walking into a lot of Montana bar/casinos looking for advantage plays, except now I call it physical therapy. LOL!.
All good things will eventually come to an end. I went 66 years 6 months without ever going to a doctor (probably a bad move in hindsight). But then I got to meet some of the most amazing people in the world. Healthcare providers are truly amazing. I'll never forget them.
