Had a stress test this morning. Maxed out the time on the tread mill so I think all is well with my heart. Waiting for the results. Doctor did put me on triglycerides medication last week

Glad to hear the good news, Barry. I didn't know that Yankee-haters had hearts.

Barry,
Happy you did well, I lasted 4 minutes last test and I jumped off...the doctor almost had a heart attack. He said you can't do that you could have gotten hurt...I replied when I could finally speak ... I 'd rather get hurt than drop dead on that contraption. And this cardiologist weighed about 300 lbs and he's telling me what to do.

Charlie I did the full 12 minutes was a little winded but ok. I think my cardiologist was being cautious since I told him if I moved to Florida I wanted to start playing softball again. It's been a long lay off haven't played since the summer of 1992

Due to spinal stenosis I can no longer take the stress test. I now take nuclear stress test which scares the he__ out of me! Can't breathe, get horrible headache...when the back goes, no more treadmill.
Best of luck Barry. You take care of yourself and keep doing what the doctor says.
