Well today I went to see my doctor. I have had really bad swelling in my feet, ankles and hands. He did an ekg and results were not good. I have had a problem with a heart valve for years, so they keep an eye on that. My ekg was way worse than a year ago. He is worried about the swelling. So I am off to see the cardiologist AGAIN!!!!! I hate this...I know that I shouldn't, but I do! So here I go again...stress test, nuclear test, etc. I don't feel like running on a treadmill! My legs hurt too bad to even try!
Trying not to worry...but heart disease has ran rampant through both sides of my family. My mother had a heart attack 2 years ago. Just a little nervous about this...but I usually am when I have to go through all of this torture. I am surprised that I don't glow in the dark because of all of the nuclear dye that they have pumped into my body!
I just want to feel normal again...
