What are we going to do with her?

Mom went to the ER Tues. night for chest pain, and tingling in her left arm. The Dr. was concerned due to her symptoms, family history, etc. and suggested she stayed over night. The next morining they did more blood tests and EKG's. Everything came back normal except for her EKG which showed sinus bradycardia (a steady but unusually slow heart beat, which can be due to heart blockage or exercise). The Dr. told Mom to go home, follow up with her physician, no work, and gave her a perscription for nitroglycerin. Thurs. she followed up with her physician, and he told her that he was going to send her back to the cardiologists in Waco for another angiogram. He is concerned due to her symptoms and her family history. Her appointment for the cardiologist is today. So basically this could really be something, or it could be her heart rate has slowed due to exercise and maybe she's having anxiety or stress related issues. But hopefully we will know more soon!
