Thank you very much for posting 'your story' Bob. You must be glad to have it all behind you.
It is nice to see you back on the forum. I hope every day gets a little better for you and that you are getting your rest.

I am glad to see you are on the mend.

Wow- that is sure an incredible story. I am glad you were able to overcome the inadequacy of that first cardiologist. I can only imagine that a well informed patient must be that doc's worst nightmare...

You know, no matter how much I read I am still shocked by how difficult it can be to get the appropriate care. I just don't get it. If a patient needs something, why not give it to them? Why put you through all that rigamarole when you aren't feeling well?

LOL-- it's over and I'm still feeling frustrated on your behalf Makes me want to soak a sponge in milk, put it in a semi closed ziplock bag and stash it in some remote area of that cardiologists office and let it simmer....

Thanks for all the information. I am a recent recipient of a CEMP at age 66 and am very heartened by the fact that a very knowledgeable person like yourself would have been happy with it. All the best with your recovery! Johan

I'm am just back from a cruise to Canada/New England with several port stops in Maine.

I am surprised to read all that you have experienced and wish you the very best. A week in Maine (hopefully) helped you find calm and peace while navigating all you had to struggle through. Best wishes for an uneventful, fast, full recovery....

and many more wonderful trips to Maine. (The weather all last week was glorious - the best we have ever experienced on that wonderful itinerary.)
