Just a test

I have spent the last two days doing what is called a nuke test. It’s a test that looks at the arteries to see if there is a chance of a heart attack. On the first day I get injected with a substance that’s nuclear and I always get sick for a minute. That is to stress my heart for the first round of X-rays. The second day is much better as the nuclear substance relaxes my heart for the next round of X-rays and I don’t get sick. If you were claustrophobic the X-rays would be a nightmare as you get enclosed by the machine so thank god I don’t have that problem. I finished went home and after a few hours the doctor called with the results. Just like I thought, there were no problems and don’t have a risk for a heart attack. It really was a good day.
