Duke and the King's Simone Felice Recovering From Open Heart Surgery

To the Doctor do you find that people who have black hair have a higher incidence of heart problems and early heart attacks?
People with black hair and or red headed people are governed in the hair color by the B-Vitamins Thiamine and Folic Acid and these are both important to healthy hearts.
The Black Haired People have as the primary Thiamine and secondary is Folic Acid and the Red Haired people have as their primary Folic Acid and the secondary is Thiamine.

This is what makes up the black and or red hair.
I know a man who died at 59 who had black curly hair, and is son died even younger at 49 and he inherited his fathers black curly hair and also his heart problems.
The father was a Doctor and it was only after he died that he learned he might have saved himself and his son from these heart problems if he had only known these things while he was still here on earth.

It was also at that time back in the late eighties that he learned from the guides in the spirit world that folic acid will prevent birth defects even spina bifita and I passed that idea on to research and low and behold soon it was announced that indeed folic acid will prevent birth defects.

Yes you guessed it I am a psychic and I am learning these things from the guides in the heavens who have many wonderful things to pass on to humans to help in their fight against all diseases known to man.

With all the talk about grammar and criticizing the writer no one seems to have noticed that the writer did not WRITE that, he was quoting what Felice posted on his Facebook blog. Reread it and you will see. You can also hit the link to the Facebook page and see the blog that the quote was taken.

Wow! No wonder we have so many hypochondriacs these days. It's the big things that go undected that do us in.
Speedy recovery prayers for this singer.

Lisa,

After rereading the article, it may be the writer who doesn't know the difference. No, it's not nit-picking, it's correct grammar, and a journalist should know what's right.

I was+ told in the early 1970's yjat I had a murmur. Ias in ,y early 20's at the time. Always saw the doctor and followowe their advice. I am also a Registered Nurse. Had regular echocardiograms and was told not quie two years ago that it was time. Had it done. Mechanical valve. I take coumadin, no big deal. If you habve a tissue valve, you do not have take coumadin, however you have to have your chest cracked and a replacement valve again in about 10-12 years. You cannot prevent everything,however you can try to minimize things. Having your chest cracked once i quite enough!

I applaud his reaction to his situation, but I wish he knew the difference between your and you're. Kind of like their and there.

God Bless you! Take good care of yourself :)

Your comment regarding heart disease as a major cause of death is true, but it is not a "silent Killer". You have confused hypertension, a major clinical contributor to the increased risk of heart disease and/or stroke and the additional risk factors. Most patitients have warning symptoms before a heart attack and the majority survive. Have those identified risk factors managed before the development of heart disease. These include managing hypertension (high blood pressure), diabetes or prediabetes, obesity, smoking and high cholesterol/triglyerides. Good luck to all in these efforts. I have managed hundreds of heart attack victims and ALL have had these conditions not optimally managed prior to their heart attack. Be assertive in having these risk factors managed AGGRESSIVELY by your family/internist MD!

You obviously had incompetent care or chose not to have routine care since this is a condition that is slowly progessive and is predictably managed until risks of valve surgery outweigh continued observation. A very characteristic murmur and simple noninvasive cardiac ultrasound generally follow the progress of the valve narrowing. To find this degree of narrowing "as a surprise" is, as I have mentioned,negligent on either attending MD or Patient. The murmur is present for years before the valve needs to be replaced. Sorry to hear that this was missed or ignored for so long. You are lucky no severe clinical consequence resulted. Speedy recovery. Dr T

I had open heart surgery at Albany Med. They really do have the best cardiologists on the earth. MY valve is very loud also. Makes it hard to sleep at night, but it beats the alternative!
