You definetly shouldn't be driving the 8 if your heart is bad... tends to raise my pulse at times :D
I'm sorry to hear about your troubles! Trust me, your grammar is the least of your problems right now. I think we'll all overlook that!
Jon and I wish you a swift recovery!!

Aw man. I remember you having problems back when I was waiting for my VIN number through the pre-order program. I thought you were going to be ok! What happened?
Hope you're doing ok, hang in there.
what exactly is your heart condition? if i remember correctly you're around 20 years of age only...
not to scare you but i had a very good friend who died of some sort of heart condition he knew nothing of...one day he decided to go out with his friends, rode bikes, rollerbladed, played paintball...and later on that night, we all went to the clubs since he had just turned 21...well, from out of nowhere he collapsed on the floor...the damn security took him outside and just layed him on the floor as if he was passed out from drinking too much...while driving home, his brother noticed he wasn't breathing and we took him to the hospital...they said he died on the way to the ER...if only those guards had called the ambulance, things might have been ok...
hope you get better man...don't take any chances when it comes to your vital organs

Sorry to hear that. I hope you get well soon.
I have had four heart attacks, so I understand heart troubles. They can be fixed and if caught before having a heart attack, they can be almost totally fixed. Even after, the modern treatments are excellent.
They can leave you functioning normally and driving Rx-8's like a mad person.

In may have last year I had a massive heart spasm (almost like a heart attack). I was at a prom the day before and I was fine the next morning I woke up I had really bad chest pains and I couldn't breath, or even talk. it felt like my chest was caving in. well fast ward to the hospital while I was in the ambulance I had a heart rate of 220 bpm (beats per min) the norm is between 60-100. They diagnosed me with cardio myothapea and my left ventricle is enlarged, its only pumping 42%. This was last may
Fast forward to Feb 29
I was at the renaissance festival walking enjoying the shows ect. I start having chest pains and getting winded by walking about 50 ft. I finally get home and collapse from the pain. I couldn't breathe, or even talk. I called to my friends and they called 911. After I was in the ambulance my blood pressure was 80 over 50 and heart rate was at 130bpm. the doctors kept doing test after test and they said that I have cardio vascular enlargement in the left ventricle and cardio Myothapea, and I have an irregular heart beat.
When I was in the hospital for six days I was sleeping one of the nights and all of sudden my bph dropped from being 105bmp to about 50 and kept going up and down.
Well, here is a summary after they put me on nytro paste (it opens up your blood vessels and relaxes your muscle [heart) I stopped having chest pains and tightness in my heart. I am still not done with the test I am going back to NJ for more test to see if there's anything else wrong with me.

I hope they find out what is causing this and can at least help you to live a comfortable 60 more years and 6,000,000 miles whichever comes first. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
