在做肺功能檢查時,心電圖顯示不正常的心肌壓力。
肺科醫師馬上要我去看心臟專科醫師。
心臟科理玆醫師要我馬上做心導管手術。我要求先做心臟掃瞄。
掃瞄報告出爐後,理玆醫師馬上安排醫院,要我做心繞道開心臟手術,因為報告顯示一條主動脈有超過 50% 的阻塞。
我的血壓一向正常,瞻固存正常,体重正常,沒有糖尿高,不抽箊。不屬高危險度。
我拒絕馬上動心臟繞道手術,尋求第二意見。我懷疑理玆醫師的判斷。甚至她是想賺手術醫療保險的手術費用。
北加州的史丹佛大學醫院的歐森醫師不同意馬上手術,要我再找史丹佛的心臟專科醫師做進一步檢查。她說心臟掃瞄的準確度不夠。
我再找另一位心臟專科哈查醫師。經過他的檢查後,他說心贓及血液循正常。
當醫生要我開心,我就不開心。當另一個醫生說不開心,我則很開心。哈。
When I had the Lung Function Test, the cardiac diagram showed the heart muscle stress. I was referred to see a heart specialist.
Doc Rizzs wanted me to have an angioplasty right away but I asked to have the coronary CT scan before any angiogram or angioplasty.
After the coronary CT scan, she called me to arrange a by-pass heart surgery in next working day in hospital because the coronary CT scan shows >50% blockage in one of the main coronary arteries.
I told her - I don't feel ill, I have low cholesterol, no high blood pressure, not over weight, no diabetes, I take work out two times a week .... I refused to take the heart bypass surgery and seeking the 2nd opinion...
Doc Olsonn disagreed the bypass surgery without further advanced check up and she refers me to see the heart specialist in Stanford Hospital. She does not agree the coronary CT scan as a 'standard' method in screening the blockage.
Doc Holiday told me my blood circulation is normal after examination, but, he suggests me to have the advance Nuclear Sputtering Artery Scan if I would feel uncomfortable on the coronary CT scan report.
A Joke - When doctor wants me to 開心, I feel 不開心; when doctor says 不開心, I feel 開心.
