That includes me. One of the first tweaks you suggested when I got the ASV was turn off Ramp. I'm fine, in fact, better off without it. Twas messing with me.

That's great! Would explain "why" BIG BROTHER
ALLOWED you to get an ASV. Really appreciate you sharing that.
RE: Advise a New Guy [on high pressure readings]
No problem. Please note this echo was done this past May. I had a mild heart attack on 10/08/17. These two events are not related whatsoever. The echo results were done at local hospital with cardiac doctor practicing out of same hospital doing write-up for said echo. Neither he nor my cardiac doctor gave a RED flag on getting the ASV.
