Hi All. Just an update on my cardiology report. I had my Persantine test on Friday and the Echo today. Cardiologist has given me the all clear and says that there is nothing wrong and lab techs probably shouldn't be doing ECG's. So with that done, tomorrow I start Opti-Fast. Excited and scared all at the same time. Excited because this is the next big step to my surgery date! Scared because I'm going to have to watch I don't roll someone for their lunch, by about half past eleven. I've bought sugar free syrups, sugar free jello powder and sugar free ready made jello and a whole pile of broths. I think I may need to move my bed closer to the washroom. With all that liquid, I'm going to be up half a dozen times for relief!
