Myocardial Perfusion test part 2

Okay they've finished
The second test.
First one understress,
Second one at rest.

They put a radioactive isotope,
On both occasions into my heart.
Although I must say I was upset,
When I found, I didn't glow in the dark.

I told the wife, She said. " Oh my God;
You better keep away from me ". Why
I asked, " It's only likely to effect you
if you're pregnant" I said as she's nearly 73.

I hope none of you out there,
Mind that I'm willing to share.
Part of myself that most wouldn't,
That's me, Sharing my life in poetry.

Just an insignificant speck,
In an ever expanding universe.
Whilst keeping himself in check,
By sharing his life in verse.

Alan, you make medical testing sound almost fun! The part about your wife is adorable! Still, I get her apprehension as I took a radioactive pill for my thyroid some years ago and received that same reaction from family members.

Hoping for positive news!
