Docnj,

-I recently posted the plight of a 55-year-old male I know who went into cardiac arrest. It wasn't long after he felt chest pain as he left for work. He was fortunate to have an ambulance stationed across the street in New Jersey where he lives. By the time he reached the hospital, he went into cardiac arrest. They opened up a major artery that was 100% occluded. He was back to work in two weeks. I emailed him "eye-opening" information on Vascepa to bring up with his Cardiologist and he did.

-The Cardiologist said, "that's a good drug, but I don't want to start you on any new meds, because we need to perform a second procedure". Apparently, the patient was experiencing shortness of breath on the follow-up visit and a second artery was 60% occluded. He had that done and he returned to work.

When I saw him afterwards, he didn't mention Vascepa, and I just knew he wasn't given a script for V. I went even further and emailed him the Preston Mason PhD presentation showing multi-factorial benefits of V and sent Twitter poster Terrapharma1's before and after photos of mice arteries treated with Icospapent Ethyl. I wrote frankly, that he shouldn't assume the Cardiologist would or will prescribe V, if he hasn't already, likely because of either the Doctor's ego because he didn't come up with the idea, or the Doctor is a robot who cares only about his routine procedures and isn't trained in the fine art of prevention. Finally, I stated: "if I was a patient in your shoes, I couldn't sleep at night for not having a script for V yesterday". I provided my Mom's cardiologist's contact info.

Conclusion: I've seen the patient at least three times since. Did he mention anything? "Crickets"
