I passed my nuclear stress test. Glad I had it done.

I had one last year. I think the worst part is when you are laying on the table for the scan part and they say "DO NOT FALL ASLEEP!" You are there for 20 minutes not able to move! How can you not fall asleep?! Plus you can't move! I was so glad to have that thing over with and hope I never have to have another one. Luckily my problems ended up being the medication I take for my acid reflux, had stopped working for me and required a new one. Good luck with the results, hope everything is okay.

about 10 years ago, when I failed my first treadmill stress test, my Cardiologist said I would never do the treadmill again. As a result of the 1st test, I had a stent put into my heart, via artery in groin. I now have a nuclear test every other year. That makes 5 of them and I have never minded them. I am 77 and try to be fearless of these things. Attitude helps.

I go To The Sea To Breathe

In 1988 my DH had stress test, they started it and shut it down at 33 seconds. Sent him home with meds, said do nothing over the weekend , this was late Fri afternoon. He had open heart surgery with 5 to take care of the 10 blockages he had. 13 yrs later, he had it again, then he had aortic anyursium surgery, same type of surgery as the bypasses, craking the chest, then 2 yrs ago had valve repairs, and today he is having abalation and they just came out and said he is also getting a pacemaker. He is 71. He has had such a time, he actually was having his heart just get slower and slower. His My husband the first time BP was like 65 over 40. So I hope this gets him some energy. I think that every man at least should have a stress test around 46-48 yrs. old. It just seems that is when they have heart attacks, my DH was 2 weeks from a massive coronary. Get those stress test. Nothing shows as well

Jackie, I agree with you on the stress test at 46. I lost my first husband in '89 to what they call "The Widow Maker". He was 46. No hint of any health problems. NO ONE should think it can't happen to them.

My "new" (15 yr) DH had a stress test this morning. He hasn't had nearly the problems your DH has and I wish you and yours the best.

Thanks everyone for all the notes and prays. I'll find out about my test result on Monday and let you all know. I want to tell you the Doctor confirmed that I got the blood clot in my lung from sewing 6,8 10 hrs at a time and not getting up and moving around and exercising. Beware when this quilting gets to long at a time. People that go on long trips and sit in airplane can develope blood clots and 90 percent of tham start in your legs.

I totally agree with what you are saying. That is why I have to get up to go to the iron, keep my beverage upstairs so I have to go up and down the stairs. I have a bad hip that keeps me from sitting for long periods, have to keep moving. And in the winter I use my elliptical while watching TV.
