Makes sense!! Thank you. You are very smart!!
I did get my actual results. My EF is 55-60 - said very normal. Everything explored was very normal. I didnt have any arrythmia or PVCs during the test (of course) so they couldnt comment on that...but as far as ischemia, blockage, size, flow, valves, and all that...said everything was tip top. I was very glad to hear!!!!! I do not smoke (quit 3 years ago), eat fairly healthy, try to exercise (have a 1 1/2 year old, so THAT is exercise LOL), cholesterol and triglycerides are really good, normal BP for me is 100/60..so I dont have a lot of reason to suspect heart trouble (other than electrical). But my father did have open heart surgery in his 30s and passed away at age 46 from diabetes complications. So..it is always in the back of my head.
Oh and the Cardio and my GP both commented on how great the pictures were. Said that the tech and I must have done a great job because they are normally not that good
