Heart of a fifty year old.......

We are packing for the plane to Thailand tonight.

I thought I would let you know of the chemical stress test results from last Thursday.

I called the Doctor yesterday as he instructed me to after the test. He told me to have fun in Thailand as my heart looked really good for a fifty year old male. He also told me to stay off the treadmill. LOL

As I am age 68, I thanked him.

He said he was traveling to India next week. He also said he was thinking about a little trip to Thailand, too. He stated he would call us there if he makes it.

Yes, it is a small World.

Life Goes On!

Well, I went back to the Doctor's office at 5:00 PM. The waiting room was full and everyone was bitching about the Doctor not being there. I found myself telling everyone about him spending almost four hours with me the night before as he was worried about me.

Another patient started telling a similar story about the doctor helping him. I was kind of like a twelve step meeting as folks would talk starting with: "Hi, I'm so-in-so and I had a heart attack and here is what happened to me. I used to eat Mexican food at the local restaurant twice a day and after six years.........".

When he arrived things moved right along. The Doctor did another EKG, gave me some pills and told me to come back in two weeks and do another stress test with chemicals.

He told me to go on with my life and not to worry. I ask him if I should do my work crawling into 130 degree attics, etc.? He said to go ahead and do what I always do.


Live is good! It did scare me!
