    Had a Dr. prescribed "stress test" today. I've had at least 3 of these before. I know many of you have had these, but this was a bit different, at least for me. Basically, there are 3 technicians in the room with you. One monitors your BP, one monitors the computer stats and adjusts the treadmill speed and incline. The third takes the pics of your heart, at rest and under serious stress.
    Herein lies the irony. The tech taking the pics,was Viet-Namese. She was in her late 30's-early 40'sl. A most intelligent and effecient technologist. I had a bit of a problem understanding her commands. for instance, instead of "take a deep breath", she would say " suck in a little air"... "hold it "..."wait"... "okay". The irony( at least to me ) lies in the fact that I may have shot at, or snuffed out a member of her family. I considered asking about her heritage, but with all those electrodes attached to my chest, I thought better of it.
