That's okay Roy! And thanks for the well wishes!! <br><br>I went in on Tuesday as scheduled for my heart catheter procedure and my cardiologist found no new blockages or areas of concern. He also said that the five stents that were placed in previous procedures were all "wide open" and showing no signs of any blockages forming in those areas. So in short, the chest pains I have previously experienced have been 100% ruled out as being cardiac related. The thinking now is that it could be stress or acid reflux. They said that it can sometimes mimic heart pain or indigestion which is why some people don't go to the hospital when they are actually having a heart attack.<br><br><br>Anyway, thanks to everyone for the well wishes and I hope to be back to my old grumpy self soon.<br><br><br><br>Thanks,<br>Jim]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Oh, Jim, I hope it goes well tomorrow.  Wherever you are, it has probably snowed amounts, like in the Capitol region?<br><br>You have a lot on your plate, I'm sorry and hope you get through it all very well.  Try to cope for now, you're doing all the right things.<br><br>I too take meds, a Beta Blocker is great for anxiety, including performance anxiety and panic attacks.  I've put on too much weight, that's an issue on the cardio-vascular system as well as joints, and I use other meds but have not really given anyone a chance to make the diagnosis of depression.  Sorry, I don't care for going to doctors, and all that stuff.  <br><br>I worry a lot, and can't sleep.  We're in the midst of a family feud, and somebody had to go and get the law involved.  Now it's up to a Judge to decide who did what, and who gets what.  I spend too much time with lawyers and in Court to seek medical attention, in a way?  That's not natural, nice, or purrty. :roll: <br><br>If you have love and support in your family  and friends, it sure goes a long, long way - unlike my situation.  At least you have a place to stay! :lol: <br><br>I urge you relax and let the healing process and interventions run their course.  Yeah, give it time - you are showing courage by talking about it, and by going to remedy what ails you.  I hope things go as smoothly as possible. 8)]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Sorry for the delayed response to everyone's replies. I appreciate all of the advice. First off, I have been to see a counselor and he advised me that I have general anxiety disorder and mild to moderate depression. So I am on some meds for that. Then I went to the cardiologist with more chest pain and tests revealed that I am not getting sufficient blood flow to part of my heart. So guess what? Back to the hospital I go for another heart catheter procedure to see what's going on. Could be another artery blockage, or nothing to worry about. At that point I would either get another stent or if no blockage is found, nitrates for chest pains. I am scheduled to go in Tuesday morning unless we have a lot of snow (which is in theforecast). The hospital that my cardiologist works from from is about 25 miles from my house and I don't  want or need the added stress of my wife having to drive us there in the weather. The procedure is not an emergemcy as my doctor has said that I am at low risk for a "cardiac event." So, if we have to reschedule, we will. <br><br><br>Thanks again for the great responses.<br><br><br>Jim]]></content:encoded>
