Nightmares, horror stories or bad/good news or a wake up call or screw it I just don't care?

Good way to determine your overall progression of cardiac and PVD. That with a nuclear stress is about the best you can do outside of a heart Cath.
Hunting brings out the worst in people.

I get one of these every year Cardiologist runs me like a rented mule and I see folks younger than me getting a shot to do the same thing as that cursed treadmill Last time I was running all out and on a steep incline and asks me if I’m ok. PFFFT Hell no I’m not ok you’re running me like a grizzly is behind me
When I need expert advice I tend to talk to myself The older I get the better I used to be

Did the life screening few months ago. Some blockage but not that bad. Had a stess test set for last week but was sick. So rescheduled for n0ext month. BP is high. Averages 160/105. Heart problems I was born with is the issue. May be in for a cut.

I've did the test. Maybe I asked the wrong question. If yours was high what did you do about it or did it worry you? Mine was pretty high.

Yall I've done had the test. My score was 2000. Never had any chest pains or shortness of breath. I was on pravastatin and that about killed me. I just had the test for a base line for a genitic muscular condition I have. Doc put me on a different station. I've been scared about taking it.went down the youtube rabbit hole. That will make you more confused and question every thing you have been told your whole life. I'm about to the point I'm going to just keep on being me and whatever God decides is good with me. Been a heck of a week.
