Thanks you guys.. It was just such a shock to read.. I knew he thought I was "hysterical" at one point durring the procedure.. he says I tollerated it well, that is not so.. I felt that catheter go up my arm like my veins had feelings my skin does.. then he couldnt get it in the heart muscle so he was going to go in again through the upper leg artery and I said NO WAY and after another try they got it to the heart through the arm.

After the procedure he couldnt figure out why I wasnt so apreciative of the fact he found no heart blockages (I am) because I could not stop crying.. I heard a few nurses discussing someone being hysterical durring the procedure.. and I was so ashamed at that time.. but I couldnt stop crying I hurt so bad and they gave me 2 regular motrin to help and because I was staying at the heart house and not my home for that night they gave me 4 more to last me till the trip home. my arm didnt shut up for along time after the procedure and is still bad at times.

My arm is second only to my origional RSD site in pain along with my heart still, I have full body RSD and did at that time too though it wasnt diagnosed as full body then.. that arm flares up alot still and I no longer have the use of my radial artery.. so no pulse on that side of my arm and half the blood flow I guess.. it's my right arm of cource and I am right handed.

This procedure happened last December though I only got a copy yesterday to read but I still have nightmares about it... it was like I was being violated at the time.. I was trapped in my own body being tortured.. that is how I felt at the time.. I posted about it then but felt like a wuss for whining.. I guess what he said and thought has stayed with me.. doctors like that dammage more than our bodys they damage our psychie and our feelings of self worth.

Thanks again it helps to know that others say this was wrong too I am just not sure what to do about this now.. I had gotten it and other reports to see what I could use for my WCB apeal but I don't think I should use that.. I wonder if they have a copy of that... they may not because they are only taking responsibility for the leg so my doc dint send stuff about my heart at that time... hmm
