OK, been there, done that. 4 hours, mostly HUAW - Hurry Up And Wait. Sign forms. Wait. Get IV in elbow. Wait. Isotope into IV. Wait. Scintillation camera - ring like CT: lie very still for 20 minutes. Wait. EKG resting in chair. Wait. OK, a little excitement now: get on treadmill (still wired), speed and incline increase. Anothe dose of isotope into IV (still on treadmill). Target: 90% of Max Heart Rate 220 - age=53 = 167, 90% = 151. Oops, treadmill mis-programmed, pulse goes to 161 = 96% of MHR !!! (thump Thump THUMP!) Cool down more EKG. Wait 20 minutes. Drink yucky "chocolate" drink in can. Sorry, no water allowed]. Wait. Wait. Wait. Finally, another 20 minutes of "hold still" in the camera. IV removed. Go homr. <whew> Thurs. am 3/20: see cardiologist (parole hearing). -Ben ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=5 Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
