Heart Catherization schedule for March 14, 2008

[Guest guest]

I have been doing a lot of thinking about my situation. I am having

chest pains almost every day and I have had several heart tests done

but they have not really show what is causing my chest pains. I really

do not want the heart catherization but I have no other choice but to

have it done. Hopefully I can find out what is wrong with me and may be

able to correct it.

Sharon , I had a heart cath done a few years ago. That

showed nothing. Now I have had chest pains again and

they did another Stress test with thalium and it was

ok. I have palpatations and finally the dr gave me a

small dose of lopressor that i take 2 times aday. and

after another bout of xrays and stuff they tell me

the chest pains are a result of fibro.
