We had planned a trip up North to meet up with our friends Don & Lucy and travel up to Moosehead Lake, Maine.
Joyce and I have been running around trying to take care of things so we could take this trip. We took the coach down for it's state inspection and I topped off the tank, etc..
Well..........other than my broken tooth which is scheduled to come out next week, I haven't been running at 100% so I move my appointment with my cardiologist up to last Friday.
After explaining to him how I have been feeling, he feels it's best that I get checked out on Wednesday. I already have seven Stents....the last five where done three years ago and I can pretty much tell when I may have a blockage. I guess I knew something was wrong but didn't want to accept it knowing that I would have to cancel our plans.
So next Tuesday I have an appointment for pre-op testing, then Wed. morning I will return to the Cath Lab for a procedure to see if there is any blockage in the arteries around my heart.
The neat part is I get to watch the procedure on the same screen that the doctor watches as the probe travels to my heart in search of blockages.
So I have to hurry up and get all my junk fixed so I will be ready to head south after xmas. We'll see!!!!!

Hope your procedures work out great. So you can hit the road. I have had some procedures but just as do not watch :)
I found it to be really interesting but realize it's not for everyone.
