I laughingly went into the cardiac clinic to have a routine angiogram that wouldn't find anything. I even made a play on my surname that I was going to have a "strangiogram".
A bit later, the doctors said "We're not sure if we'll let you go home or not."
I had plaques closing off my main cardiac artery just where it branches. If I got a full blockage there it would be curtains immediately, with no chance whatever.
Stents were no good, if they put a stent in one arm of the fork it would close off the other and vice-versa.
I was literally a walking time-bomb. They eventually said I could go home. Two weeks later I had a triple bypass.
