Re: ..........IVs to Jim/ Going for stress test tomorrow/quitting cigs

[Guest guest]

Hi Heidi, You are so right, I so used to having my computer I almost

feel naked without it..LOL..I am going for a stress test tomorrow.

When in Florida, my dad had a catherization, where they shoot dye into

the heart arteries to check blood flow. My dad had 5 bypasses done 10

years ago and now some of the bypasses are getting blocked. I smoke

and I'm diabetic so I have 2 risk factors plus the genetic one so my

fathers cardiologist suggested I get get a stress test. I am quitting

cigarrettes. I have a quit date in 2 weeks as well as a px for zyban

and the patch. I am so psyched to quit, this will work...wish me

luck...hope everyone is well..Jim

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU!!! It is a big deal to quit smoking and you

are going about it the right way. Picking a quit date and letting

people know who can support you is great. I did that very thing

seventeen years ago and have never picked up another cigarette. You

can do it - you have the right attitude and you will feel very proud

of yourself as you should. You have all my best wishes and keep

posting even when tempted, I'll help you keep the stinky, dirty

sticks out of your mouth.!!! Good luck with the stress too. LInda
