Thanks Almost Gone and Lovbyts. I remember the ultra sound test by general practitioner family doctor did back when I was 22 and in college. He had the machinery in his office.

currently , My health insurance is subpar. It's not one of the biggest and best medical insurance plans like Kaiser Permanente.

What accounts for not having these tests done to me or others earlier? Probably because medicine is like "managed care" with Factory mill offices that turn and churn out patients very busily and hastily

When I told the doc of my dad's heart attacks he just meekily nodded his head, although he's a totally nice guy, not one of those a hole doctor's who are obnoxious and condescending

Anyway, they are very busy now, during the winter season

I am going to wait until January 2022 when the weather warms up more and after I am officially 50 ( I turn 50 early next week) to have all the tests done when a man reaches 50

or correct me if I'm wrong and I should go now and have this ultra sound and EKG stress test done almost immediately...

(maybe if I've made it this long without a heart attack, and without need to take high blood pressure meds) I can wait another full month till January 2022 till I get the EKG stress test and the Ultra sound.

thanks again.
