Jamie I am so sorry your Dad had to go through this, I have been in your place, My Dad had a Massive Heart Attack in Feb he works for the railroad and wouldnt you know it happend on the train thank goodness they where close to a RR crossing for the Ambulance to get to him, he had a 100% blocked Artery and one more that is 30% blocked. I can give you some advice that they never did tell my Dad we had to find out the hard way, they will put him on a high dose of Blood Pressure meds make sure to tell him to get up very slow and not just jump up. my dad passed out on me and hit is head pretty hard. Dad also had to go in for a 2nd heart cath about a month ago he was still having pains and hard time breathing but all went well and said it could have been from his Heart Rehab or just the healing process. If you ever need to chat please PM me. Hugs.
