My Dad is having a lot of medical issues right now. First he had two stents put in his coronary arteries. Now they discovered he has an enlarged aorta. I have heart disease on both sides of the family. I recently have been having palpitations, so I went to a cardiologist. Had a holter monitor for 24 hours. Tomorrow I go for a stress test and an echo. So I am kind of nervous, but if I have a heart attack, at least the hospital is across the street.

I've had one before and it's really not that bad. The dr stays in the room and watches the monitor the whole time so if something started looking bad he'd take care of it immediately. I'll be praying all goes well for you. I think most of the time palpitations turn out to be no big deal so we'll just think positive.

Mom's had several stents. Not sure what happened with my aunt but she didnt even know anything was wrong and died in her sleep. Autopsy said the aorta looked like it exploded. They have checked mine before with echo so let's hope everything is still okay. I'm 31 by the way and a bit fat.

At my age I'd probably be okay if it wasnt for the family risk factors. Doc increased my daily asprin from 81mg to 325 I think and told me to continue my other meds. Hopefully it all turns out to be no big deal. Will be praying for you today!

Im still waiting on a side swap from her as well.

Looks like she hasn't posted since 8/20. Maybe she is busy right now.

I know it is starting to get cold here already. I have had to start plasticing off the coop windows already this year. It is only in the 70's here and low 50's at night. So I haven't been on as much lately. Missed a lot of trades too.

I still have 2 swaps left for this week.
 
Being a nurse, I know about heart problems from both perspectives. Sure hope it's no big deal, but family history on both sides makes it worrisome. I had a stress test before, but at that time I had been used to using a treadmill. Really, this is a wake up call. I need to take better care of myself. My holter monitor showed my heart rate down to 42 at one point ! Plus, our copay on insurance is like $2000 so we will end up paying for all this.Already at $500 for lab tests and office visits. I miss my former doctor , she used to see me for free because I worked for her:)
Thank you all for your good thoughts.
