Yes, I am your man, if you want to have someone run and go
nowhere, I’m good at it.
Recently I went to the cardiologist as you already know and
did the stress test. Now normally, the test requires you to take on the
treadmill and walk your ass off and do it under a lot of strain, so they (the
teckies) can get your heart rate. The idea is to give you a heart attack and
therefore collect for the cost of the test. There is no place for sissies in
this testing, and if you die well, too bad!
Last and subsequent years I have been doing the nuclear
stress test, with the needle lying down while my heart races where no man has
gone before, but it is a sick awful feeling, just to avoid the treadmill
Being a thinker outside the box, I decided to ask if there
was another way to die and they said no. We inject you with a needle, and your
heart races and you die. The injection of an isotope of some kind that is used
to see how you are situated with clogged arteries. Once they get your
information, they inject you once again if you are still alive and the feeling
of hot molten lead in your veins then goes away. Amazing.
I actually did pretty good for an old guy, they even said
for my age, wow, I did good! Walking then climbing then running and climbing,
they look for signs that you are about to keel over, so they gather around you
with their arms out, ready to catch you on your way down. But I fooled them: I
kept going, like the bunny that keeps on going and going.
Tomorrow I call them and ask how I did, and if I did good
enough that there is no blockage, then I will be very disappointed because I
have to do it all over again next year!
