    what do you do?
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    you need a roto-rooter treatment dude. Anytime they tell you not to do anything, you have a date with the operating room,......sooner or later.

    Like my brother at 60, had to do a stress test next thing you know had to go in for 2 stent procedures.

    Hope All is ok.

    Got one stent already. Personally, I think they are the next best thing to sliced bread. They beat the living heck out of having a bypass. [:D]

    I won't say needing a cath is lucky, but at least you're doing it before the heart attack.

    The cath isn't a lot of fun, but it beats the hell out of a heart attack. You'll do fine.

    Let us know how you liked it. [;)]

    I don't like em had one in '96 when i had a heart attack.Now the stest test came back bad,the tilt test and ekg didn't show anything.So he thinks i have a blockage is going take a look-see and hopefully fix-up.

    I think the stress tests are worse than the cath procedure.
    Had 2 of each done so far.
    One stress was on treadmill, about 7 years ago, not too bad.
    Last one was chemically induced, about a year ago, that was pretty scary!
    Good thing is, no blockages either time!
