Doctor's visit
Yesterday I finally went to my GP for the monthly checkup, sense she is weaning me down on my pain meds I have to make every appt. possible. My heart Dr.'s office had called to inform me that I had a 3:15 appt. with them. How abt. getting the appts. on the days that I can actualy make, instead of telling me what they can do ? Well, I went to my GP and reschedualed with the heart Dr. who can't see me again till Aug. 6th or is it 8th, forgotten already !
My blood pressure was 110/100, so I was glad I brought my Lisinopril with me. I don't know what's up with my heart, it has a mind of its' own nowadays. My insurance doesn't want to pay on my Heart Cath so I had to put that on the back burner till I can get it verified from the Heart place. I am afraid of doing the heart cath, they say it's not that big of a deal, but really ? I guess I will just try to be brave but I'd rather they would knock me out and let me know when it's over.lol, No, really am serious abt. that.
A girlfriend and I had made each other agree to go out for lunch today, my treat as it was a late "Birthday" lunch I had promised last June. We had a good visit but my gosh, it was so darn hot I could hardly stand it !!!! We went to the Body Works store and got some good lotion and some wonderful smelling hand soap. Gosh, I could spend alot more than the 28.00 that I did spend in there. Then we went to Stage and they were having a good sale but still only spent 68.00, THAT'S really good for me !! I didn't need anything really, but it was nice to get out once I actually left the house and went to pick up my friend. It was just so very hard to get myself ready, I just didn't want to do it so bad, I can't explain it !! But once I got away, it was okay. Funny how that was, I felt so bad when I first got up, and it was late. I am lucky to have an understanding friend.
SWITCH ON YOUR BRAIN by Dr. Caroline Leaf, the name of a book that my Dr. said that someone she knew recomended, or told her that it was good reading. I had my youngest son order it for me. I don't have much of an attention span nowadays, but I am going to try to read it cause I'm pretty sure my brain can use all the help it can get !!!
I'm going to go to bed early tonite and just watch some TV and try to get past the worrys of the day. They say that when a negative thought enters your mind you just switch the thought to something else, preferably a good thought. Wow, can I do that ??? I don't know, I can work on it I guess.lol
Enough banter for today, gonna go to bed.
