I don't believe that this posting made it through the first time 4/19 am Sorry if I'm wrong gjl Dear Colleagues, Recently I was in need for some surgery on my right knee. As a part of my pre-surgery work up I had a routine cardiogram . My primary care physician compared it with the previous cardiogram which dates back to pre- pallidotomy days and he was "astonished" at the change. The previous cardiogram, dated 6/95, was considered abnormal and was filled with "static" and other problematic data. The most recent one was free of "static" and much of any thing else that might be considered abnormal. It is remarkable to look at its calmness. Does this mean that my heart is functioning better? My PCP certainly thinks so. I will follow this up with the neurosurgeon. Has anyone else noticed the same results? george
