the ceiling. Well, doc decided that since she  also found some
"non-specific changes" in my EKG, she wanted an echo  cardiogram which
I had done yesterday. She also slapped me on Toporol (SP?)  for
lowering my pressure. Fortunately, the echo was fine; she told  me
that when she saw me today.

Anyone wanting specifics feel free to haunt me off list. It's a  most
