I actually slept from around 11:00 p.m. thru 4:30 a.m. this morning. I know ow nothing at this time other than awaiting stress test and angiogram/plastic. if the suspected problem of a partial blockage is what is causing left of sternum center chest high pain when walking or doing almost anything .

I originally thought it was from digging a 2 ft. Diameter hole about 24 inches deep in soft ground a week ago. Ground is soft so wasn't any big deal. But muscle soreness doesn't keep getting stronger every step ya take. Or feel very pressurized. So that is why I went to see my primary care doctor yesterday morning at 9:15 . I haven't been home since.

So Iam laying in bed bored to death . My left chest area does hurt even when breathing . 6 years ago I had about 25 percent blockage in an artery. The cardiologist did not prescribe any plaque remover meds then. I guess that there are meds that actually do just that.

The cardiologist just came in and we talked a few minutes. He is young but very nice and informative. We talked about the chemically induced stress test and he said that it's okay to do that but an angiogram would be the best test to look at the heart and arteries and if we have a partial clog can open it up and Stent it. I have to wait until around 1:00 p.m. Eastern time for that. It should in his opinion provide the answers for the left of center of sternum build up of pain when walking or doing anything physically.

So that is what is happening today. Hopefully it's a Stent and done. Otherwise am running out of any other logical reasons for causal of this.
It's funny that simply laying in this bed reclined my chest area on left side is letting me know it's not happy. So I am not doing anything except sitting.
What the heck is that ???

Talk to y'all later after the angiogram/plasty.
