Grumpy Old Man Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Got a Nuclear stress test today. I've got a heart murmur They wanted to check out. I will get results next week. I was surprised, because I've been told I'm the only living person with no heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheyenne Ranger, 48747L Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Had one of those, too. When they injected whatever they do I thought I was going to hurl and have my head explode at the same time. It's something I don't want to do again . . . ever!

Warden Callaway Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 The cardiologist wanted to do a stress test on me some 15 years ago. I asked how much was it going to cost. I keep getting the run around. Is I was paying a very high premium for insurance that virtually paid for nothing, I wanted to know. Finally the nurse slipped up and told me $4,000. I told them I just had a stress test and didn't need another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I've had a couple of those Nuclear test. The medical assistant told me that I would probably experience some serious chest pains after the test were complete and ALL I need to do was drink a Coke/Pepsi to make it go away. Well, I got some pretty bad chest pains for about 1 minute after the test and they went away as soon as I drank some Coke. Strange but true. Anyhow, it was worth the test because it allowed the Doctor to determine the best way to treat my heart problem. That was nearly 8 years ago. I wish you good results on the test. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
