Phew! All clear on the heart front! Apparently it's in good health. Good to keep an eye on, though. My cardiovascular system is in fine shape; my wallet, however, is screaming for mercy.

Fabulous news Helen, we all need to know these things...
Few weeks ago I was told I've reversed my diabetes 2 after working on it fir 2 years....6 stone lost n more in progress....
Tell me about it....but I'm lucky to have health insurance so didn't have to wait for the plethora of tests. Can't imagine what it's like to wait for public scans/consult. Two tier Ireland is not the NHS I'm used to for 30 years.
Great news, and really appreciate you highlighting an all too frequent patient issue, financial toxicity. I call it a side effect, definitely needs to be tackled better. It can be the difference for some of not engaging with their own health.
Delighted for you!!! I’ve got high cholesterol history… . My mother’s cholesterol was over 8 at one time. And she was the healthiest 80 year old !!!! I’m keeping an eye on that especially!
Great piece of mind to have, Helen. I had an angiogram a few years back now as there’s a history of strokes in the family and I wasn’t feeling so great. Got the all clear for 10 years.
Omg I have similar stuff going on had to have a ultra sound on my arteries in my name and chest x-ray so far so good but always good to keep up to date with it glad to hear all is well health wise tho same on the wallet its big mad
Great news Helen … know all about the cost of those tests had them a few years ago when running marathons … and my sister (a nurse)thought I was going to die when I crossed the finish line .. we have family history but I was clear as a whistle ! Others have high cholesterol mine normal .. exercise!
