Lil bro had a coronary calcium scan a little while back. His score was not great so they scheduled him for a stress test. There was something they didn't like about the stress test, so they scheduled him for a heart catheterization yesterday to go in and take a look. He is now scheduled for open heart quadruple bypass early next week.
At age 48.
So, those Ts and Ps things, gonna need to ask for some of those for him.

Ts and Ps and such.
Luckily, heart issues seem to not be an issue in my house, BUT we got alot of other things to be concerned with.

May be the first time I've said 'Bigdaddy' in a prayer. Shocking news, but hoping everything turns out ok for your brother.

find out after it's too late. And stuff like that can be hereditary so I'd suggest you get tested if you haven't.

they said my stress test back in March was normal, but I'm having a hard time understanding how that can be. My annual cardiologist appointment is coming in January, but I'm calling today to get it moved up to ASAP. Who's is your doc?

But other than my morning in the cath lab receiving stents, the only test I've ever had is an ecg.
He says there is no reason to stress test me as I do that myself. But I'd love to be run through some tests and get some data.

Mumbette was not Mrs. Mumbette back then, so she's being nervous for me.

Too much about it. He'll be better on the other side and have a cool scar to go with it.

Or is one of those marathon runner types with 4% body fat in perfect health who you’d never suspect something like this and it scares the heck out of the rest of us who don’t have 4% body fat?
