Thanks for posting.
I wrote a brief note explaining the pain and that I thought the test should have been discontinued. I faxed the note last week. Haven't heard anything back.
> You're right as when I did nurse I was working in ccu and had to remove a carotid line and was told to put pressure on it the guy passed out I pressed to hard and a code was called he could have died. Thankfully you're healthy amd it wasn't invasive like what this guy had. Too much pressure cuts off the blood flow to the head. Love Phillipa
