I went to see Dr. Forgason after having some discomfort in the chest while jogging. The discomfort was so minimal that I almost did not go. TheDr. ran an EKG and did not see anything abnormal. None of my blood tests were out of range and I do not have a family history of heart issues. After a lengthy discussion, he recommended that I get a stress test and arranged for an appointment, two days later (quite amazing!). The stress test revealed that I had three blockages in the lower descending artery. Ultimately I had bypass surgery and am on the road to full recovery. I am truly thankful that he did not dismiss these symtpoms which could have been fatal.
