Went to Dr. today

I asked about the EKG's and she said not to worry about them.  The readings (lawyor) at the top was usually wrong.  She looked at the one in 2008 and said she would do another one today.  She said it looked fine today.  It did not mention any AV block just an incompleate right bundle branch block and the same usual stuff.  She did another full set of bld work. (8 tubes worth)  Oxygen level 96 on my finger.

I have an appt. on Wed the 21st of this month for a echocardiogram and a "myocardial perfusion Stress Spect gated with EF".  (not sure but I don't think that includes getting any injections.)    She said not to take my medicin that day though.  After all the test are in I will speak with her and then she is going to present the information with a referal to a cardiologist.

As far as the treadmill goes she said not to worry about my HR.  If I get light headed just to slow down.  With the pills that I take it keeps my heart rate low.  And as far as it dropping to 54 that it was probably just the hand things on the treadmill.  She's the boss.  So I guess thats what I'll do.  She said that even though I eat healthy ....I eat too much.  Never had a problem with my appitite.  ha ha.  So it looks like 3 meals a day instead of one small and one large.  ~ 3 months of walking and I gained another 3 pounds this month.  :-(   Good bye Salmon and venison meals.  Hello rabbit food.  

My goal to maintain this year is 10#s less.  Total 3 year goal of 40 pounds.  Right now I'm 170#s!!!!!   OOOOOOCH  Or at least from my size 12's down to size 8.

STOP SMOKING------will start Chantix-------? maybe after play offs, or maybe next week---Still debating.

Dr. wants me to come in for a fasting 2 hr blood test and drink the nasty cola syrup stuff tomarrow AM. due to sugar being up.
Also wants me to talk to her about iron level up and starting on a thyroid med. ? I think they said one was high & 2 were norm low.

I told them I would rather wait till next week Tue. 27th to talk to them about it since I have the echo and spect stress on Wed of this week that way I don't have to come in twice and would rather review all of the results in one viset.        I dread the thought of drinking that nasty syrup stuff in the morning.  YUK!

Went in for Eckocardiogram & Spect Stress test.  Slept alot of that evening.  ?  REALLY tired this time.  Fingers crossed for good results.  They said my Dr. should have them (stress test) tomarrow and it looked pretty good.  Will talk to Dr. on Tue. though about all of the results at once; at my request rather than having two visits.

Could it be related to heart or back, UTI, or ?    My Back is really sore AGAIN with some bad spasms.  Some deep feelings of heart beat and pains but, not bad (somewhat the usual)but, feels brused this time.  VERY Tired today.   Coughing really hurts.  What the blank.  This is getting so old.  Urinating alot.  Really hurts tward the end.  Like a hollow filling that my endside are going to pull threw.  I'm getting so very tired.  :-(
