Why do they call them Non-stress Tests?? I find that they do nothing but cause me more stress. Today's NST lasted 90 minutes long...yes, 90 minutes long! Let me start off... what I had planned!

The study up here is mainly to get me more active

We traveled to Salt Lake City for stress tests the other day, and the experience was quite interesting -- to say the least. It was a bit exasperating trying to find the place... their regular parking. At which time we joked about having our stress test before we even got inside. But at least...parking was free.
We were handed more paperwork to fill out
