thanks for the replies, i really appreciate it, and i look forward to turning purple and taking a whirl on the tilt table.

Sorry I spelled your name wrong before! Thats exactly what they did to me - nitro (did you get a roaring headache with it?) - some bloodwork - EKG - all ok - then IV valium which slowly got rid of the pain.....
