Divya:

It was done in India, and I am so grateful to that heart surgeon or the heart doctor and the general physician because I was like, 'I cannot have heart disease'. I never had the heart disease in both sides of my family, my paternal and my maternal side, and when they told me that I needed to get this battery of tests done, I was like very skeptical that they were out to make money on me, and I said, “Listen, I don’t have insurance in India. I will go back to the U.S. and get it done.” And they were like insistent that I should get it done, and despite of all my protests, they admitted me to the hospital. I stayed there overnight, and then the morning they conducted this battery of tests, and then they made a CD and sent it with me back here.
