First let me say THANK YOU to all of you for your warm well wishes.  All the good vibes you sent sure helped.  When I logged on and saw all these messages I was really touched.....

I was very nervous when they took me in to start prep'ing me so the surgeon gave me a little something to take the edge off.... they prep'd me and took me to the OR......that's when I really got nervous and started to shake and shiver on the operating table.......once they gave me the sedative to relax me for the procedure I was much better.  The Surgeon was 1/2 way done before I even realized he had started.

The bottom line....... the test was easier than I expected and the results came back really good, nothing to be concerned or worried about!  WHAT A RELIEF!!!! 
I'm on modified bed rest for 5 days.......I can't stand for too long, can't lift anything more than 5 lbs, no bending (this means I can't be unpacking......ugh).  .I cannot wait to get back on my bike and start doing some exercise again!!!!!!

Thanks again for all your kind thoughts and well wishes!!!  It's nice to know there are so many kind people out there.

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

Good news!  And forget about that packing for a long time - not just five days, okay?

Donna,
Five days will be hard enough can't promise anything beyond that.......besides, this means I have clearance to do my arm revision in 2 weeks and you know I won't be able to unpack after that so I have to hustle next week....... But I will be be good for the next 5 days :-)

I am so glad that things went well for you. I know that being someone with a heart problem those tests can be very unnerving for sure. Just the anticipation of knowing it is going to happen. Take care of yourself and make sure you follow your doctors orders...and that is a order from someone who is not a doctor but just cares!

                        that tells what kind of life you have lived.
