I had nuclear stress test for my cardiology clearance.

if you have just stress test you would be asked to go on treadmill and they will monitor your heart. with increasing speed on the treadmill.

If it is nuclear as I have they will do the shot of isotops and would take the pictures of your heart before exercise and another shot during and picture after.

Had my stress Test.... Nuclear though.... Had a sprained mcl at the time do no treadmill for me! When the doc injected the radio isotope I immediately felt a rush ... Got very dizzy and massive headache!!! I was watching the monitors and my heart was not racing but I felt it more in my head!! He then gave me the antedote and told me it was a common reaction!!! It just felt weird... Like borderline passing out weird!!!! That's y the Dr is in the room when they inject the isotope!!!!! They kept asking how I felt and immediately I told them and the antedote worked IMEDIATELY and I was back to normal!!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
