No, I don't think so. just the hampster wheel, and some sort of camera that takes '3-D' images of your heart.

I have been using aloe vera. Also been popping benadryl. But it looks like I was attacked by the salt creature from Star Trek: original.

Last edited by Shelley; 12-12-2007 at 07:42 AM. Reason: spelling. nobody poops benadryl.

Echocardiogram? TEE? - both will give a 3-D,
but the Echocardiogram is a lot like the Wada,
except you're put to sleep. And the TEE is put
through your throat and you're also put to sleep.
I've had a lot of 3-D's of my heart, in fact I see
my Cardiologist in a little bit so will be having to
log off to ride over there to see him.

But of course there's a lot of other tests besides
Holter Monitor, HR/BP Monitors, Stress Test, etc.

Great news Shelley. Glad we could help you get over that hurdle. Just want you to listen to your body. If it still feels like something is wrong, make them listen. My husband was told that there was nothing wrong when he was 85% blocked in one artery. This is not meant to scare you or anyone else, just really listen.
