Well I got the note from my caregiver today. The results from my stress test reveal my heart is normal and I do not have any heart muscle damage. Thank God!!! I couldn't walk the treadmill, so they injected me with a medicine that makes you feel as if you had a workout. Your heart races, you get short of breath and your body hurts. It really made my back hurt and I couldn't get comfy. It only lasts about 4-6 minutes. Then it was over. The doctor did ask about my heart rate. I guess it was running high and I told him my normal is around 104 to 108. I also wanted to know if they could package that medicine they injected me with as a wonder exercise plan, as I felt like I had a major workout. Of course, they just laughed. You would think with a regular heartrate like mine, I'd be thin, but, nooooooo......LOL
My anxiety levels are very high. Just trying to fill out paperwork today for the credit counseling sent me over the edge. Anytime I think about our finances and the problems we are having and it sets me off. My chest hurts, my heart races, I can't breathe. Not a good feeling. I do have a pill to relieve all that. As a matter of fact, I am trying to concentrate on this blog and my symptoms are happening as I type. I do not want to take the medication, so I am trying to focus elsewhere. If it doesn't go away in an hour, then I will take a pill.
Back another day. May God bless and keep you all in his arms.
