Angiogram scheduled for January 27/2026.

have stopped all wheat and grains. 

food intake almost KETO like. Down 10pm s since initial diagnosis Nov7/25. Holding at 182lbs. (6’1”) BMI24 so pretty average. 

Today is Jan 8/26
with one week down in the new year my new focus on health and food is ramping up fast. Binge reading about nutrition and how critical good health management is linked to avoiding ALL wheat and grains. SINCE IT IS NOW CLEAR that that’s how I ended up in this OR scheduled for a SVAR at St Mary’s GH in Kitchener ON. 

DR William Davis cardiologist and author of the WHEAT BELLY series of books has been terrific for me. So much necessary information and guidance on to live healthy (NO WHAT AND NO GRAINS/CERALS). 

Learning about cholesterol LDL/HDL/TG and bogus data the corporate machines have churned out over the last 50 years is frightening. 

it’s very difficult to accept that calcium buildup ie. aortic stenosis cannot be reversed given the human body is so complex and adaptable. 

finally, with only one echo done, it was an immediate rush? (Asymptomatic) to SVAR yet no calcium scores were determined, no discussion about them, no stress test to establish a baseline, after 60 days now, but an angiogram has been scheduled. Why I can’t help but wonder.
