Caution : Please do not read if you are sensitive and with weak heart. My words might make you feel un-ease.
From last 7 days, I had little chest pain. Though it was not that acute but it pained lightly when I climbed upstairs. Then the pain would go away, if I take rest for 3-4 mins. Then we showed it to MD and cardiologist and suggested to do angiography, which we deny and then went to mumbai to consult the expert on angiography. After seeing my reports and tests, he has suggested to perform angiography and then to decide whether to perform angioplasty or put stent in vein.
On Thursday evening, 2nd August 2012, I was taken to operation table for angiography. I was already feeling nervous as I was undergoing the procedure for the first time in life and I dont want to go for either of the options- angioplasty or stent. On table, I was lying with my both hands holding a bar near my head. A nurse had given me local anesthesia to my thigh area. Now doctor came in and hold my leg and pierce hole in the vein. Though the I couldn't feel the actual pain but I felt like ant's stint. But my body started to respond, became hard knowing what was going on. Doctor said me to relax. I tried to relax but still sometimes my stomach and leg muscles became stiff. Now the machine had started to rotate slowly and randomly around my chest taking video or photo and showing on screen. I have already closed my eyes but I could hear the sound that machine was making. I was feeling a little vibration near my heart. So I knew that the wire is inside my body. I was relaxing by closing my eyes. I was feeling like my table is moving so I keep opening and closing my eyes and then I dont know when I fell asleep. It was like dark all around me and in background a music was playing. Suddenly there was like lightening struck and I was like gasping for air, gasping for life and I was like bounced near the machine head. I remember, I am on operation table and I must not move like that but I couldn't control myself. One man was pumping on my heart. I started to shout, 'mummmy......' Then doctor shouted again, one more shock. I understood the situation that the lightening was actually an electric shock. I shouted again, pleading, ' pls no shock, no shock, no shock' but again a shock came bouncing my whole body on table. I felt like my left part of the body has just peeled off and strong hammer hit in my mind. Then again that man has started pumping my chest very hard. I pleaded, 'what happened doctor? What happened ? I want to live. I want to live. Pls call my relatives from outside. I want to talk with them'. The doctor asked another doctor to put on the oxygen mask. I couldn't understand why that mask when I can breath. He put on the mask said me to breath. The guy who was pumping my chest had stop. Now doctor said to me, 'relax..relax... Its done' I was like keep pleading to doctor my questions but he went away. My oxygen mask was removed. Then a man came and told me happily that I am alright. I then saw around and I saw many worried and pale faces around me. I could feel something went terribly wrong. I started crying. That man came again and ask me why am I crying? You are fine. I again asked him what happened? He didn't answer but keep saying me that nothing, you are fine. Then I saw my relatives in nearby room watching me from a big glass window and doctor was talking with them. After sometime, doctor came in and told me that during procedure, when that wire entered my heart, it has responded very strongly and it has started to beat very fast and heavily. Good news is that you dont require angioplasty or stent right now. You will be given medicines that will open the blockages and will control my cholesterol level. I was like thank god. But I kept asking to others who came closer to me that tell me the truth, nothing is placed inside me?? Again after sometime, doctor came again and said to other doctor, 'now its stable. Remove the wire.' and went away. Then the wire was removed from my body and I was taken out of operation theatre. The whole night I was kept under observation and next day morning, I was discharged. And on same day, we returned to my city by train. Now I am on full rest and medicines. I dont have chest pain since my return home.
Later on that night, I heard nurse talking on phone with other staff member about me saying I was given 3 shocks. Two shocks I have counted but what about the first one ?? That means, I WAS DEAD FOR SOMETIME.
Thank god for giving me another life and chance to live with my dear ones again. 
Love you all.

What an experience shared by you ! You have just written your heart out there. God is great and have been with you.
How are you now? Everyone is not like you ceaser, all can not share their experience like you have. But one thing is sure, that what ever you have gone thru, you wont forget in the near future.
So, something is missing. Your first shock. Do you really counted the two of them? Or , the local anesthesia took it away from you?
Were you DEAD FOR SOMETIME ? Really. O , God is really Great

You know when I read your post I was thinking about two other persons, Masseur(I know he's on a better place now) and my brother who nearly died on 2008. whenever I heard stories like this It feels like I'm actually there watching whoever's in such distressful situation. I know how your family feels mate, as the moment my mother told me that my brother almost got killed by an accident a week before I arrived home really sent me into a state I never knew I would experience. It's good to know that you survived the ordeal, and you made your friends here anxious. by the way what you experienced was an example of NDE or Near Death Experience

Yes my dad having had tripple heart bypass in March he had a stent put in before hand and said it was so painful. But stent never worked. But he's fit and well again now. Ceaser i hope your health improves and maybe you were working too hard as you told me you have been very busy with your work lately. Take it easy for a bit if possible. Your health is more important. It can change your outlook on life when these things happen. I am amazed your cholesterol is high your a tall slim man Ceaser  When my dad has heart attack he passed out was gone for 15 or more minutes. Any longer would have been fatal. Anyway we are all glad you came through it mate

@bhavitsoft
My reaction after watching my relatives ( my wife, my brother and his wife, my cousin and his young son) was like I want to tell them everything what happened with me. Even I wanted to know what doctor was saying them. I saw my wife crying a lot and my sister-in-law took care of her and took her outside.
@hihihans
Yes, I was in safe hands. Actually the doctor is an expert on angiography and is pioneer of this technology in India.
@bonovox
Yes, I am slim man but cholesterol came. May be because of my family history. Though my father didn't have such problem but my elder brother have. He is also slim like me but he had this heart attack 4 years back and stent was fitted then. He is just 1.5 years elder then me.
@fabloise
Thanks friend.
@razec
I am sorry about your brother. Yes, I had NDE. Actually I had read that page yesterday morning. And my experience is one of that. Darkness and the background music. The music was coming like from a far end of a tunnel.

Oh Ceaser. Your story really touched me. First, because it's you and second, because I have cholesterol in high levels. But thanks God I have subscribed in a gym. I hope the high levels go as low as they can.
I really hope you get recovered 100 percent. You're very important for yours and us.
Happy weekend!

Well I dont remember the exact type of music but it was like coming from a distance. Like you hear sound from other end of tunnel. Echoing.
@tranced
Oh.. You too have high cholesterol. My level is 532. HDL - 39 and LDL - 477.
@reeflotz
I just hope nobody have such scary experience.

A healthy cholesterol level is around 3 to 4 so my doctor told me. Simvastatin I am on but mine is not too high its mostly blood pressure and sugar levels for me. Ya know what's best more than anything?? Corporation pop in other words water.
