I was the first one in and the first one out. All the data they logged while I was exercising looked good. I will not get the results from the film until monday.

I got to do a stress test - then an echo stress test both using the "Bruce protocol". I actually enjoyed them and notched in a couple good workouts to boot.

My results were excellent - I hope yours are even better!

Clap your hands and jump for joy I got clean bill of health from Dr McCoy. The good news is that films were just as clean as the EKG. The bad news is I still have diabetes

Glad your stress test went OK - I had one done last year and it was an interesting experience. My first port of call afterwards was to Starbucks to pick up a coffee as I was feeling seriously decaffeinated.
