congratulations, that is phenomenal news. i know that the waiting is horrendous and wonder why you had to take it upon yourself to get the results, why wasn't the dr wanting to give them to you as soon as they got them?
i work in oncology actually and additionally right now, i'm guiding my oldest sibling through the maze of treatment and test for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer. so it hits a bit home for me, and i can't imagine why any health care professional would put you through waiting for results such as that.
good for you, glad you got such great news!

Great news! And like the others said, I wouldn't worry about the heart rate as long as you felt well.

Thanks everyone. It was such a relief. It's hard to believe that doctors' offices don't contact the patients to let them know about tests like these...at least mine doesn't. I appreciate all of you who encouraged me to get the tests done and be my own advocate. It was very good advice.
Possegal - I hope it all works out well for your sibling. Prayers.Last edited by li10up; 11-02-2007 at 01:19 PM. Reason: corrected a typo
