Heart Attack on the 11/26/2019
I had a heart attack abd this how the doctors call it:
ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)
(STEMI) SVT Supraventricular tachvcardia: SVT

They found two arteries that were clogged and placed stints . They were unable to place on in a third artery because it is too far gone.
They recommend a bypass .

They also diagnosed me with Supraventricular tachvcardia and tried something called an ablation, but stopped because the area is too close to the valve.
Now I need to wear a LifeVest

.
The thing monitors my heart and delivers electro pulses to control the heart rhythm. Insurance covers most of the cost, but the LifeVest runs $3,370 a month to lease. The LifeVest continuously monitors the patient's heart, and if a life-threatening heart rhythm is detected, the device delivers a treatment shock to restore normal heart rhythm.

So due to that, I got a very special Christmas present. Not that the actual procedures (My copay part) is anything but cheap.
hat's why I have a GoFundMe page for that. Medical costs killed me in 2019
