Saw my cardiologist today. The gray-outs are vasovagal - spells of low blood pressure caused by medication and immobility (both episodes occurred while forcibly sitting still - at a medical conference and on an airplane). Nothing to be concerned about, and he gave me some tips to avert it the next time I feel it come on.
Take care,
Michael

One of the realities of a heart problem is not being able to brush off things as 'Just a bad shrimp'. Everything gets bounced up a notch in the worry zone. Glad it was minor. You won't have those after the surgery!
Also glad to hear it was minor, especially with all the other traveling you're doing pre-surgery!
Hope to see you and Jenn soon, dear - we miss you in choir, and I miss hugs from my friends!
