So, June 10th was my two year anniversary. I had a regularly scheduled check up with my cardio on June 12…over the past few months, I've noticed fatigue, shortness of breath, pressure in the chest, lightheadedness (more than normal) when exerting myself. I ride a bike, and have noticed increased perceived effort for the same observed performance. Mentioned all this to the cardio…EKG was normal, Echo looked normal (porky still looking good inside!), so he proposed a nuclear stress test. Did that last week, 9 minutes on the treadmill. Got the results today…not good news…They're not sure whether I have a blockage or have had a "small" heart attack…they're working on scheduling a cath/angiogram. Needless to say, I'm disappointed and apprehensive. thought I'd have more than a couple of years without complication….I'll post again when I know more…keep the positive vibes flowing southward!
