Heart disease to Ryan Reynolds

MaralynManson

Hi,
I'm in Margaret River in Western Australia. Had a quadruple bypass in May 2014. It's so wonderful to be able to exercise again! Before the operation, doctors had told me I had asthma - this is what made it difficult to breathe when exercising they said. But, that's now fixed. I've managed to keep pretty healthy but kind of 'fell off the wagon' recently and got a nagging from my doctor.

So, back into a proper exercising routine with a goal to have a body like Ryan Reynolds by September 2017. My nieces wedding in the UK.

Worst part about this is having to cut out so much wine!

Please drop me a line if you would like to discuss heart disease stuff or pretty much anything really!

Cheers

Fwiw, I had 3 TIAs (mini strokes this summer) due to a PFO (hole in the heart) and the onset of a clotting disorder that is exacerbated by high cholesterol. Which I have.

PFO's closed and now I'm trying to get my cholesterol down so that DH and I can get pregnant (statins are not safe for pregnancy)

I haven't fully joined the club but I'm close enough.
