Positive.....OK, don't lose any sleep over it. I got a virus in my heart while working in Africa. Idiot doctor over here misdiagnosed me. Treated me for COPD. Nothing wrong with my lungs. Got a good doctor and found it was my heart. They said I was so bad I could get disability. They put me on some drugs and I never quit working. Had a recent checkup to include blood work and a sonogram and my heart had improved so much they took me off several of the drugs. I go back every 6 months for a check-up and try to avoid a lot of salt. Other than that I haven't changed anything else. Still drink beer and whiskey every now and then. Don't try to fly anymore but I work as a heavy equipment operator so obviously I get worked pretty hard. I'm now working 12 hour days, 12 days on and 2 off. I can outwork all the youngsters on the job by a wide margin. Do what they say and keep active and you'll be fine.
