I delt with chest pains today and called my Dr. and I am going to set up an appt. tomorrow to see a Cardiologist. He said he got the paperwork from the hospital and I did have a heart attack. I knew something was different was I went down to the ER a couple of weeks ago. They are so slow at getting the paperwork out and because I was scheduled for the VNS the next day I had made my mind up to go through with it.

I try to keep calm and I told that ER Dr. I wasn't in any stress but he says I have silent stress.

My problem is going to be finding a good Cardiologist around here. I have one I had seen back 5 years ago when I started with the ischemia and stroke but I didn't like him.

I am going to be having an echocardigram. Have any of you had one of those before? What do they do when you have one. Now I am wondering how they are going to deal with things since this VNS is right near my heart.
I'm wondering how they will do the test.

I'm just really frustrated right now with this mess. I get past one thing and then run into another.

Thanks for listening.
