Well the doctors finally found out why i get out of breath quickly. After failing my original Stress test that only lasted 4 minutes, i then had an Echocardiagram of my heart area and then a Nuclear stress test. All that came back OK and no blocked arteries. The doctor will be putting a Pacemaker in me on Wednesday 15th. You get put into a "twilight" sleep and a local anesthetic then they cut you about 2" long near the collar bone and put the leads into the heart through a vein then connect it to the "Power unit" which is about as big as a mans watch and sew you back up. It only takes about 30 minutes to do it they say. I'm still nervous about it though. I have a condition called Bradycardia which means the heart doesn't speed up and supply more blood when needed. The doctor called it "Rusty Wiring". Maybe i'll be doing cartwheels after it's done! I couldn't do them before though.
