I had a heart stent put in when I was 35. I go every 2 years to get my heart checked. in 2018 Everything was perfect. As a matter of fact, the doctor said I had done something not many could do is reverse heart disease. I went to the ER on Thursday because I could not breathe. They thought it was just an asthma attack. Until they ran blood gases check. My B-TYPE NATRIURETIC PEPTIDE was 4,700 normal is .125. The ER doctors were shocked beyond belief that a number this high was possible. The ER Doctor in charge started yelling at all the nurses to start meds stat. My Cardio Doctor said he was shocked that I had a 100% blockage and that my numbers were so bad. He said the heart usually does not go this fast.
