Test postponed

Grandma's stress test for this morning is postponed and they will perform it tomorrow. The dye that they used for the lung test will interact with the dye that they use in the stress test. The lung test came back great, there are no signs of clots in the lungs. The echo-cardiogram, an ultrasound of the heart, has not come back. Dr. Martin, their family dr, says that it could be a simple change in her current medicine to keep her blood pressure normal and her heart from racing. The cardiologist has not come by as of 10:00am, but unless he advises differently she will stay tonight as well b/c of the current living conditions. They still do not have power to their house, but my mom says that the crews are out in force around my parent's house.

My mom says that she seems to be doing well. But she is VERY bored! So if you get a chance give her a call and tell her what is going on around you.
