Claimant suffered back injury. Following back injury claimant suffered mild heart attack. In response to questions concerning a possible causal relationship between the back injury and the heart attack the doctor testified that the stress from the back injury was a factor in causing the heart attack. Court ruled that this was insufficient evidence to establish a causal relationship between the back injury and the resulting heart attack. The evidence presented on this issue of causal connection was deemed to be nebulous and speculative by the court.
