    Bov it's been 1 month since the PA said they would schedule it in 2 weeks. They are now scheduling it anywhere from may 4th to the 15th. I'm not happy about this at all. He is one of the most prominent cardio surgeons in the valley, and they don't seem to be concerned.

    For about ten months Mrs Wharf and I have been using Oat Groats.... Groats are whole grains that include the cereal germ and fiber-rich bran portion of the grain, as well as the endosperm.

    Sorry Dee... and prayers for your cousin Tracy ~ Welp... Mrs W and I went to the Dr's yesterday. I am going in for an angiogram in two weeks. By what they were saying, it sounds like I'll need at least one stent.... Not what I was hoping for but it could have been worse.

    Thanks Tracy !!!... Right now my follow up is still Wednesday. They gave me the blood work sheet 3 months ago, that wasn't very smart of them :?: I need to go by tomorrow so I can get it drawn Saturday. Hopefully they can get the blood results by Wednesday so I don't need to take two trips.

    No Bacon for me either Dee :?: I got a call from the Cardio this morning, the appointment is now pushed out until the 20th. It's a family emergency, I just hope it's not someone passing. I'm still stressed about the results, though Mrs Wharf says if it was urgent they would have slid me in!
