Back from Angiogram

This afternoon and evening (Wed) was spent at Beth Israel in the waiting room, while Redjeb had his angiogram (cardiac catherization).  R is fine now and we have come home and had dinner.  Unfortunately he has to take it easy for the next few days, so the puncture doesn't open up.  No nice long baths like he likes, no lifting, minimize walking, etc. 

R said the doctor (Fox) told him that there was some blockage but not enough to do anything about, so he won't need a bypass when he has the valve replaced.  So if R heard correctly, that is good news.  He has an appointment with his cardiologist (Virzi) on Friday, so we'll know more.

Maybe we'll even make it to East Hampton this weekend.  Who knows?
