I did the old treadmill stress test this morning, and the person that administered the test said I need to lose weight, get more exercise and my blood pressure was a little high, but everything was okay with my heart. Duhhh.... why didn't I think of that? Blood pressure a little high, maybe that's why I take Losartan daily. So now that hurdle has been jumped I seriously wonder what roadblock they'll throw at me next.

The good news is it is over and you're doing fine.  Who'd have thought an overweight person would need to lose weight and might have high blood pressure.  The miracles of medicine !!!  I would love to go back and take that test now that I could walk without feeling like I was going to die !!!!!  Keep positive.  You'll get there.  Remember, it's the squeaky wheel that gets the oil !!!

Hooray for having the stress test done and being OK! Now, since they put it in writing to Sen. Inhoffe, I don't think they are going to be able to stall your surgery again. Maybe get your test results from today in writing and send it to Sen. Inhoffe and let his staff keep following up on this for you. I think it's going to hopefully be a green light for you. I'm keeping you in my prayers and hoping to be welcoming you to the loser's bench soon! 
Blessings and Best Wishes! Shelly

Good for you! They told me I was too fat to get a good reading on.
