    Following up on my stroke of the 18th, I had a echo cardiogram with bubble test today. I hear bubble test and start thinking champagne! Boy was I wrong. The doctor told me as soon as the results were in this afternoon. Of course I didn't get a call. Doc says they're looking for blockage and a hole in my heart. They sure do expect a lot out of me. lol

    Generally, no news is good news.

    Its when they call you in and tell you to bring your family and a chaplin that you know you're screwed.

    I hope all is well and what isn't is easily fixed. :)

    Keep your chin up,
    I have been there and if you dont like what they tell you make sure they know it,always get a second opinion in my book just like in any profession some doctors got c's in college and some got a's check and make sure what doc you got.

    This is stupid! They haven't located a cardiologist who is available to read the test yet (over 24 hours). Sure hope it isn't too serious.
