Remember Allan Thicke?

Geez...you just never know, do you!

Just had an ECG, stress test and echo cardiogram yesterday. Made it about 20 seconds into the fifth stage of a six stage stress test. That's basically where the treadmill speed and incline is about the equivalent of running uphill. Each stage lasts three minutes and each stage the incline and speed increases. Hard to get to the end when each stage is progressively harder and you're tiring out from the previous stages.

My family Dr. ordered it out of the blue....no early indications from me or symptoms....just "elevated" cholesterol levels for the last decade or so...and apparently new guidelines to assess risk of coronary heart disease based on blood test (lipid panel).

No guarantees but I do try to eat healthy and get exercise....but...."no guarantees".

Take care....of your body, you only get one and it has to last your lifetime.

had a similar test a few years back had to minimum of 8 minutes preffered is 12 made it to 15 my wife was amused
