Doc says I can get back to normal with the exception of heavy lifting. He stopped one med and cut one in half for now but will eventually stop that one too. Funny guy, I asked if I could play guitar and he asked me if I could play before the stent. Rim shot! As far as cardio exercise he said just do the regimen through the hospital cardio rehab for now because that is adequate and I will be monitored. If that goes well I can get back to the stationary bike and brisk walking on my own. Sounds like they got me fixed.
