you got it right Dave, it's an Angiogram.... up the inside of the leg to take pics of the heart's arteries. IF they find something that needs to be repaired.... a blockage that needs a stent, they'll probably do it right then and there.... then the "angiogram" becomes an "angioplasty".....

I've had five of them. have five stents and two heart attacks under my belt. Paige and you are in my prayers, but also be comforted.... the Docs know what they are doing.

Praying,
+Michael
