They stronly suggested a follow-up upon returning home. End result, more tests and ultimately a stent in one artery.

My recovery re: my leg is pretty much complete. Now, I'm just trying to get back into the swing of things. I'd been entertaining a bike change to a gravel bike w/dropped bars. Our bikes, my hybrid, is still up in the U.P. We are going up over Easter to bring them back. Mine will go to my grandson. I've been using a modified Schwinn (to a road bike) on a fluid trainer. Going well, today averaged about 14 mph for 30 min.
