PAT's What to expect?????????

Hello All, Tomorrow I am sceduled to have my PAT's done. Surgery date is 12/21/04. I have to be at the hospital at 7:00am. Can anyone please tell what tests are done and and about the approximate time it takes? Thanks for your time and input. Sweet

Hi Sweet I am so excited for you PAT's are a breeze. When I went I had three things done. I had blood work, ekg and chest x-ray. I got there early, around 7am so I was in and out. The whole thing took around an hour. Best of luck tomorrow and God Bless... Susan

Thank you Susan, it was a breeze. I got all worked up for nothing. have a bless day. Sweet
