I walked in wearing sneakers, shorts and shirt and the medical workers seemed shocked.
I was then told that they were going to do the stress test while I was lying down on a table with meds not a treadmill as I expected.
I showed them my papers that indicated use of a treadmill.
Still they seemed shocked.
Then if dawned on me...when I was between the ages of 3 and 8 I had had 3 bone graphting surgeries on my legs to correct my ankle deformity so that I could walk. Mind you this was 32 to 37 years ago.
I suppose the test was done then because the threat or possibility that I could have circulatory problems and or the lack of ability to "jog, run" on a treadmill. Personally I think the treadmill would have been somewhat better.
I don't know but I guess that from the papers the workers were given they expected me to be on crutches, wheelchair or worse.
Hmmmm?
Anyhow, my doctor should get final results in about 10 days. But my next appointment isn't til mid September. I suppose they will call if anything wrong or suspicious is found.
