Ed Schultz was just talking about some Heart Test???
Imaging calcium in his body?
I would like to find out what that test is, and where to get it.
Any one hear him about this, it was in the first 5 min of his show today.
thanks

3. He had the test done
Took 5 minutes, with results in 7.
Its new imaging process.
So its not an ad, but a test he had.
