Hells bells. That brought back bad memories. That happened to me last October while playing ball hockey at work. Fortunately for me, the guys knew CPR. I think it was CPR for 12 minutes until the paramedics showed up, then three zaps of the AED. I remember showing up to set the game up and I remember coming to my senses in the cardiac ward at Foothills. I don't remember anything in between.
Over 90% of an artery was blocked and the plaque ruptured and that was that. The cardiologist said that the sports where there is lots of stopping and starting can trigger the event. Basically, I had a bomb in my chest and that type of physical activity is the trigger. I had no known heart issues.
