re: Trivia - back pain diagnosis leads to heart surgery

I'm going to guess that the two were actually unrelated, but going to doctor for back pain lead them to discover heart condition.

My heart attack (no classic symptoms) was found through blood work.
My subsequent need for bypass surgery found through a stress test (that I honestly felt I did very well on).

found a hereditary heart condition all because I felt dehydrated and thought I was going to pass out at work one morning.
