Sorry to hear you too are in dock.
Sunday last week I had a heart attack due to arterial blockage and ended up in the poly clinic. All going well I am out tomorrow.
We kep on a modest medical insurance for inpatient treatment and I am making sure I get best value from it.

Hope you get well soon, “dog”.

I have had one artery that has been 50% blocked since 11 years ago (when discovered) and I have had both the Moderna shots without any problems and no stent either. Coincidences do happen. A distant family member died last week in Turkey at age 43 supposedly from heart attack a week after receiving the vaccination shot (don’t know if it was 1st or 2nd shot). The problem is, no autopsy was done as they bury the dead within a day as the tradition is in Turkey.

I just had Endoscopy and Colonoscopy
Results show no abnormality. Doctor says if the blood results, awaited, show HB level at 9 plus I can go home.
I must say that for a small nation the hospital is very professional.

That’s very disturbing.

I am thinking heart complications might be as a result of vaccinations. I hope not but it seems that way,

Good news Milti.

As fit as a ...bottle of red !!
Was discharged after my blood tests showed my Hb up to 11.4. Again I must express my admiration for the doctors and nursing staff, all professional carers.

It's been a couple of months now since my hospital admission and blood transfusion. I'm absolutely amazed at the high level of care I have been receiving since June 23rd.
Apparently the Endoscopy showed a cancerous ulcer in the stomach and preparations since then, including a Pet Scan at the Germaniko Ongologist hospital.I have had every test possible and very extensive consultations with the hospital Ongologist and the Surgeons. This Friday I shall be admitted and on Monday I shall have the operation which will apparently remove the ulcer and a part of the stomach. Needless to say I have tremendous confidence in the doctors and surgeons, I did ofcourse inform them of the existence of a personal IRREVOCABLE CONTRACT which expires on May 30th 2043, age 97 :lol: I have though been told that aftet the operation the ....wine will have to wait at leadt 6 weeks before my ...reunion with a glass. Guys, let me tell you,.I have had a lot of experience of UK hospitals, what with my late wife and daughter in law and I state here that the medical treatment here in Cyprus is much much better.
