this has been a long thing but after all the tests and peeks and such, he said my heart and arteries are fine. Go, sin no more, live a long life.

So I came home and heat or no heat painted half the trailer. hehe.

Was a bit concerned but everything was better than OK.

I was not haveing a problem it was something they thought they picked up on a physical.

I went through the same kind of deal over the past couple weeks. Mine included a biopsy, but after the results were in there were no 'new' problems.

jack..good to hear...I gotta post this..the wife told me not too..but this is for real and happened to me yesterday....

1) I had an esophagus endoscopy (have bad acid reflux and they check it every year)...When I was getting weighed in the tech asked me when I last ate I said 7:00 p.m. she paniced and said we can't do the procedure...the other tech yelled out NO it's OK we're looking in the throat!..

2) The IV tech is putting in the IV and says turn over on your side and lift your leg...I said why? I'm having an upper endoscopy? she says OH...I thought it was a COLONOSCOPY!!!

3) the doctors nurse is running me through the pre-op checklist and asks me if I've ever had a COLONOSCOPY done before...I scream it's a throat exam..and she says OH..and I guess you haven't had a HYSTERECTOMY then either...someone got the wrong file...I presume it was a females?? I tell the wife to give me my bag of clothes...now anyone at this point probably would've left but they reassured me they had everything under control...and jokingly said when we push you in the exam room if it's the lower end we're doing... you go in feet first...the upper head first...

4) What do they do but push me in feet first...I scream upper ENDOSCOPY they spin me around and take me in, knock me out and I guess did the right thing...at least they told my wife my esophagus was OK...and my butt didn't hurt...

THIS IS A TRUE STORY AND HAPPENED YESTERDAY...sorry it's so long..it almost belongs in the HUMOR section...but no wonder they have so many malpractice lawsuits!!!
