Did you mean his cardiac enzymes were elevated?? Has he ever experienced any cardiac/respir. sympotms such as shortness of breath, chest pain, pain in his neck, jaw, down his arm?? Has he ever had a stress test done? If the restest still shows elevated values, they'll probably do a host of cardiac testing, e.g. EKG, chest xray, stress test and perhaps an echocardiogram. I know you must be terribly frightened, but this could be a blessing in disquise. There are what are called "silent heart attacks," or "cardiac episodes" during iwhich the heart suffers some minor damage, usually not permanent and often the person experiences no signs or symptoms. But is a warning and good thing as it gives the dr. and your family an opportunity to pursue a course of treatment, life style changes that will prevent a much more serious episode. The best thing is that you had a physician who did not just toss some antihypertensive meds at you and send you home. It did some baseline cardiac bloodwork!! And perhaps it could be something totally unrelated to a heart condition as such. Your Dr. can explain that to you, but there are other reasons that may cause these enzyme values to be elevated. I will be hoping and praying for an encouraging report and positive diagnosis. Hang in there...it sounds like he's in good hands. My thoughts and prayers are with you both. {{{hugs}}} Sandra
