A couple of months ago I brought this subject to my doctor. I complained that we didn't have an easily accessible diagnostic program to check us for potential problems like clogged arteries. His response was to change my lifestyle now to head off problems.
Best of luck to you over the next few months.

I'm sure we have most of them here but you have to have some kind of event before you get access to them.
It's almost as if my doctor has to pay for them out of his own pocket. I'd just like to see a complete diagnosis program for any senior who wants one. Might save a life.
