Re: Echocardiogram question
Dianne,
Unlike Sheila I have not had any difficulty with my echos and my implants (silicone), however that may be dependent on our body types, positioning of the implant, etc. I prefer the echos as they do not involve any radiation and are very quick. Much is based upon the experience and skill of the technicians, and additionally on the skill and expertise of the M.D. interpreting the echo. I am really quite envious of that 71!
Did you have time to google around about Dim and Calcium D-glucarate?
