http://forums.steroid.com/showthread.php?t=311053 Here is the link to my original post on this matter.

The doc sent me to a hospital to have a cardioligist run some tests on me. They were an exercise stress test shooting some kind of radioactive fluid through my body by way of I V and an echo cardiogram. When the doc first came in and looked at my ekg he said it was abnormal hence the reason I was there. He said I potentally could have blocked arteries, previous heart attack, something like parts of my heart could be dead, or a thick heart wall. When he said this my resting heart rate went up to 110. Anyways after all the tests he said i was OK!!!!!!!!!!!. He said i still have an abnormal hbeat but it's nothing to worry about.

This has put things into perspective for me. For all you who haven't been in my situation it sucks when your 27 and the doc says you might have a bad heart and you have all these tests done on you cables and dyes going through your body. I am a bodybuilder, that who I am and is a major part of me. Am I going to stop doing supplemts.? No, but this incident has made me more cautious and may be a sign to slow down a little. As bad as it might sound this has also brought GOD back into my life, it just sucks that it took an event like this to do it. Man, when I found out the good news I cried for the first time in forever.

I thank everyone one who kept me in their prayers and offered advice you all put my mind at ease a little and a big thanks to this site the best on the web.

All I can say now is: GAME ON!! TIME TO GROW!!

Don't know I have great family genetics. I might be one of those people who just have an abnormal ekg.

Thats life, this game isnt the safest by all means, but anything you do in life will carry risks. Some people can sit down all day watching TV and catch something bad, Its good to do something you love, and to me, bodybuilding is a reward unto itself. I do like to research as much as possible, and look into the conseqeuence of my actions and side effects of the things I put into my body, but at the end of the day, you have to take a little risk to do what you truly want. The same applies to almost anything in life. Im glad ur heart is good.
