That's definitely the "widow maker." Good thing you got it taken care of. My Dad had an 85% blockage of his LAD when they found it, along with 4 other blocked arteries. He ended up having to have a CABG (coronary artery bypass graft)x5 aka "open heart" at age 52. He never saw it coming, but also never went to the doctor. He's doing ok now, but he got lucky. Get out there and exercise and get your annual checkup guys!
