Best of luck to you. I had the same fears when I went to the Cardio last year. I also had a history of HEAVY drinking, but i had quit years before. I still thought that my drinking had caught up with me, so i expected the worse since my Dad had died from heart problems. I also had a history of extreme stress/anxiety so I figured I had one foot in the grave.

When I went, the doc scheduled me for a heart catheterization, and THAT really did it -- I KNEW I'd had it then! LOL

After i got the results of that, I was absolutely FLOORED -- everything was FINE! Absolutely nothing wrong at all! He did the heart cath cause I had a mitral valve prolapse, and he wanted to look at the valve closer, but it's working just fine.

So we worry ourselves SICK for nothing 99% of the time. I'll bet yours will be just fine too! So don't project problems when there isn't any. God bless and good luck! Hugs, Lee
