Ive lost all confidence in this hospital and its team of doctors having my best interest in mind.
Jambo, that's terrible. It's a good thing you were able to get that additional image which ruled out the cancer and avoided unnecessary surgery. I can't understand the foot dragging that seems to be going on in regards to your heart interventions, have they at least prescribed medications which might help some?

I know you're in Canada and subject to their publicly funded universal healthcare system, which you've indicated in the past has served you well. Just wondering how easy it might be for you to get access to your cardiac records and take them to another doctor and healthcare facility to get the ball rolling for the cardiac intervention you need.

Sounds like a plan to me!

Best of luck in all of this.
