Health park X-ray tech read the wrong x-ray which caused an unnecessary heart cath

I was transported to lee memorIal hospital by ambulance. There were many attempts made at saving my life. They had done a echo cardiac test which showed a bad heart valve and that I needed surgery immediately. Before doing the procedure the cardiologist thought he would first clean out the artery. Well come to find out there was no blockage or heart valve problem. The tech had read the wrong x-ray. This caused lots of Grief for my family and an unneccessaruy cath for me. I'm not sure what happened to the person who did have the heart valve problem. I can't believe a big hospital like this is protected by our government and can get away with mistakes like this
