As scheduled I met with the cardiologist at 9 a.m. He did an EKG which was normal and heard my heart murmer. He felt addition tests should be done because of my family history. An appointment scheduled in the afternoon for an ECHO DURING STRESS/ REST WITH DOPPLER. The first half of the test was simple and went well. The second half was a disaster. While I was on the treadmill, the technition accidentally pushed the wrong button which made the speed of the treadmill increase. I have problems walking, let alone running. I started to stumble and tightened my grip. The other technition yelled get her off, and they syopped it. I fell into a gurney alongside the treadmill and tears streamed down my face. Once the pace rapidly inreased I knew I wouldnt last very long. I have trouble walking unasisted, never mind at a fast pace. It was decided that an MRI should be scheduled for tommorow. When I returned to the waiting area and by the expression on my face Vinny knew something was wrong. I explained the traumatic ordeal and he was furious. He couldn't understand why someone would expose me to that danger knowing my situation. I then had to calm him down because he was ready to go back there and wreak havok.
That temporarily put that bad experience behind me.
love,
Jill
