Yoj...
My sister had sone really wild palpitations a couple of weeks ago, so she
went to her doctor, who told her to see a cardiologist for a nuclear stress
test. She had that test last week. She lives in Valdez, Alaska, and had to
go to Anchorage to see the cardiologist. Her husband went with her, but he
came back after the test, and she stayed a couple of days for a work-related
conference. She got home Friday evening and found a message from the
cardiologist, wanting her to come back and make an appointment to come in
this week.

She called today, and they want her to come in Wednesday for a heart
catheritization. At least that's what my mother said. She's pretty sharp
for 94, but she sometimes gets things mixed up. I'm thinking it's probably
an angiogram or angioplasty. She's supposed to avoid stress. I don't know
how anybody does that. My sister is a high school teacher, and my BIL is a
vet's assistant. He has to go with her, so they both have to take off work

She's 94 and still works?!?!?!?!

and make another $700 trip. They have to go tomorrow evening, in order to
get there in time for her early appointment on Wednesday.

Naturally, there's a lot of stress going around. Purrs will be appreciated.

Purrs for your sister.

Those nuclear stress tests are really good. My father in law got one
on a lark -- they're different from the regular heart stress tests he

Thank you, Adrian.

gets every year. The regular tests showed no problems, but the
nuclear stress tests revealed problems that led to a quad bypass.

I'm very glad he took that test.


Victor Martinez...
Absolutely, on the way!
