Today, I had the upmost joy of having my annual physical with my family’s Doctor. Even now, the thought of sitting in a waiting room for over an hour and half for an appointment, made a year in advance, just makes me smile… Seems like just yesterday I was in there getting my last year’s physical. It is crazy how time can fly by. This year’s report was much better than last year. I’m not dying, so they tell me. I was not so thrilled last time when they found PVC’s on my EKG read out. It has been a long 12 months of Cardiologist appointments…6 or 7 times wearing 24 hour heart monitors….weight gain…the stares I got for being the only person under 80 in the cardiologist waiting room…limits on physical activities…no caffeine...numerous drugs trying to find prescriptions that might work… My heart still is not fixed. Every fourth heart beat, beats prematurely. Whether it was life’s stress, hereditary or a fast-talking hussy, it has been with me a year and it’s here to stay apparently. I go back to see my cardiologist in a few months to get checked out again, he gave up trying to fix it a couple months ago. It looks like an ablation procedure is the only thing that might cure it. I’ll keep you posted.
