 Posted: 04/09/03 - 15:23 Post subject: Doctors Report
Had 2 tests done today another stress test and two gamma camera scans of the heart. I had 2 doses of radition administered by IV and then the camera took pictures of the heart (the gamma camera), to check the outflow.
Preliminary results are that I will not need surgery. They will review further and then forward to the surgeon for his opinion
I will most likely be making a trip to Minnesota to see a group of doctors that specializes in what I have.
Good news

And a quick lay over in Atlanta so I can treat you to a low-fat, low-sodium burger at the Varsity.

Be happy to. I'll get fresh linens for the guest quarters.  And if Rob comes with, I'll have the bait waiting so we can all go wet some lines.
No surgery is definitely a big somehow zipper-cappy doesn't have the right ring to it

Most likely they sending you to Mayo in Rochester. I live a couple hours closer to there than Jrjo does. We have a queen sized spare bed and a basement and sleeping bags for kids if you need a place to crash.
