Here’s a follow-up: I’ve was having chest pains, so I had a nuclear stress test on Monday. This morning the office called and said it was abnormal. Got scheduled back into the cathlab at noon. Turns out everything looked good, my stent was clear. The abnormal stress test was a false positive which the doc said happens more often with women. The blood tests showed that my electrolytes were out of whack. That’s from the extreme GI issues. It can be very serious, so make sure your doc understands how lousy you feel. I’m home now, and grateful that my arteries all looked good. Thanks for responses.
