Hi Everyone

Just go home from my gp apptment today. The stop of my eye was an infection. He put me on antibiotic drops for it.

The pain and swelling in my legs has to do with a circulation problem. I have to wear support hose, knee high for now. I am going to have to go in for a stress test, and possible heart cath, depending on the out come of the stress test.

I am going to talk to my ortho tomorrow and see what he has to say about the problem also, since i do have problems with all my joints it seems.

Talk to you all

(((((((Lou)))))))))

Going threw tests and having to worry isn't fun. You need to get the problem figured out. I have had a heart cath. I have always said if the worlds biggest chicken can go threw it.:wink2: Anyone can do it. Maybe the stress test will turn out ok. Just take it one test at a time.

Hang in there Lou, you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Lou,

Hopefully you are having the thallium stress test. It's easy and very precise. They can tell if there is anything wrong with your heart with the results. The hardest thing you have to do is eat your lunch. :lol:

The answer may be as easy as taking a heart med like Coreg which helps your heart work more effeciently. I will hope that's all you need to make you feel better.

Good luck and let us know what happens. :hug:
