Second Heart attack in a year and a half

well i had my second heart attack in a year and a half, apparently the scare tissue healed around the end of the stent that was placed with my first heart attack and closed off the artery again. Hopefully this doesnt happen again i would hate to have to have bypass if it would happen a third time in the exact same spot, or worse dye. I am taking the rapathy twice weekly shot for my cholesterol now and hopefully that will help with my health although my doctor said there was nothing that would of prevented the second heart attack. Grimm reaper wants me but someone else is fighting for me! LOL

i know right, I started walking over 20 miles a week to work and back lost like 20 plus pounds since my first heart attack I am not overweight and i thought really not again! Hoping this doesnt happen again if so i have to by pass which is not something i wish to see in my future. My health insurance approved the new rapathy medicine for high cholestral you take a shot every two weeks so hopefully that does the trick this time with my cholestrol stupid genes! LOL
