Okay Chuck. Now call up the nurses and give them hell! You are back in control. Take care.
By the way, the candle was lemon meringue and my whole house smells like freshly baked pies. Everyone benefitted from that one.

Yo, Chuck, this is great news.

They have of course told you that if you cut yourself it's a good idea to get to a hospital pdq, because substances like warfarin DO the job they are supposed to do: thin the blood, and in the process, they interfere with the efficiency of your system's ability to clot.

It is very good news that you are home. How are you feeling?

Brucie.

Great Tarheel! Sounds like you and Big Mick had some similar problems. Maybe "pickin' and grinnin'" is a little riskier past-time than we think? Naw. Can't be so. Anyway, keep getting better and stronger and healthier.

Hey Tarheel, hope you're feeling better. It sounds like you and me have something in common - I'm on the waiting list for the ablation op - burning out the extra impulse that puts in that extra beat.

Take the meds carefully, I keep forgetting mine and consequently feel crappy for days afterwards.

I know people will be telling you it's all OK and it's nothing much to worry about, but hey, it's alright to worry, it's your heart after all! Take care and rest up all you can.
