Hopefully not. Past few months I've been getting winded easier, and starting to get chest pains when it happens. So I got serious about seeing the doctor. Went for a stress test but the stress part got shelved -- I'm guessing they didn't like what they saw on the ECG. Last Thursday I had an ultrasound of the heart -- that little thing jumps around a lot more than you would expect. Then she flipped a switch and there was red and blue colors. "Wassat?" Blood flow, doppler ultrasound.
Tuesday I get to go to the Sunset facility and they'll be routing out coronary arteries -- an outpatient procedure, get to go home same day. Should be feeling much better in a week.
Will post updates as they happen.
