Thanks for all the advice and info, guys.... I've spoken with my doctors and feel like I'm in good hands, as they say. I don't have any other health problems other than high cholesterol ( obviously), all my arteries are clear except the one in my left leg and I'm having a complete pre-op exam before Friday so any adjustments to the procedure can be made if indicated.
My neighbor is a retired heart surgeon ( he did the first open heart surgery in the San Fernando Valley, BTW ) and assures me that my doctor and the hospital I'm going to are first rate. I also have three inlaws who are MD's and I'm in contact with them about this.... I guess I'm just nervous - this is really only the second major health problem I've had in my 66 years, the other being Liposarcoma in my left arm ten years ago which was cured by surgery.
Anyway, thank you all again for your advice and thoughts... Jim
