Glad to be helpful these are scary test to go thru when you don't know about them they just make you start thinking what if it shows something you don't wont other problems to deal with you already have enough preparing for this surgery so many things to do just think positive cause all of us have to go thru all these test just to make sure we're ok have they schedule your surgery yet? Good luck

I had to do Eco it was just like an ultra sound when you have a baby. Also had to do nuclear stress where they put a iv in and put you in the machine like a car scan the big round one they give you meds in iv and did a series of test like 5 minutes two times then 20 minutes then they gave some meds that makes it hard to breath but not to bad just heavy for like 20 minutes that last one made me dizzy and a headache maybe cause you can't eat after midnight the night before and it was 11:30am they said drink caffeine and it would help and go eat when I finished with my Eco lucky everything was ok. I had a blood clots in my main valve in 2000 and a mild heart attach but no trouble after that you just need to relax its hard but think about end results I was cleared for my surgery so just pray and think positive
