I am Home...You know the V.A. Evaluate and out the door you go! The Heart is NOT damaged thank you all for your prayers...they are what made the difference! I cannot believe the phone calls and messages of encouragement not to mention the hugs.
I am on nitro and aspirin and more statins and the fun heart diet. I had the medicine stress test that showed that the blockage was small and that the plaque was also very small. The Shot for the feet forced the blood through the heart to fast and resulted in a heart fart. It HURT big time.
My feet are bad; they have joints that are separating due to the autoimmune degenerative disease and I have to stay off them.
The Heart Doctor on rotation (?) says I need to lose weight and exercise at the same time??? (please refer to the foot doctors instuctions above) My Heart Dr. was a 1st year who wants to do PC under a 2cond year will get together with the 'actual' doctor with the degree and review all my test sometime in the next few weeks...
I am really tired and so off to rest I go...Russ is still very sick, but I cannot even think about that right now. I love everyone and have some really funny stories to write when I feel a bit more 'chipper'.

Is there anything else that can be done about the feet pain?
I have an Oxy-Cycle that can be used either as a seated bike for feet or arms.
Sorry I didn't call today but my voice(face muscles) aren't working. Glad you are home.

Glad you are home, that's the important part, you'll get the rest figured out. I am beginning to think that the VA is NOT so good for your health! I like KK's idea of Oxy-cycle, bet that would work for you to get exercise. Better days ahead! *M
