Another Test

[OldBones-Larry]

I saw the Cardiologist again this last Wednesday.

She wanted to check in because I have continued to have some pains and pressure in my chest.

We don't know why this is happening, so she has decided to set up another Angiogram.

You can imagine how excited I am about another one of those!! NOT!!!!

She also started me on a long-acting blood vessel dilator. I has caused headaches and dizziness. This should pass when my body adjusts to the medication I am told.

I will let you know more when I have the info.

Stay strong in your quit and your journey friends.

One step, and then another, will get you to where you want to be.

Oh Larry, I am so sorry that you are having more issues.  No, I would not expect you to be happy about another text.  I am very impressed with how accepting you are about this new medication taking time for your body to adjust.  Some people take a dose of medication and if they have side effects, they want to stop it.  Have to admit that I am not a fan of side effects...I really hope that you adjust quickly.  

Thinking of you and sending healing thoughts.

Hang in there Larry!

Keep the faith!

Not fun, no, but better to find out the why.  I guess we need to be thankful that there are such methods of discovering problems.  Side affects of drugs are no fun either.  Hmmm, did they give you Minoxidil as a  vasodilator?  One of the happy side affects is that it stimulates hair growth!  Hope the unpleasant ones pass quickly but that it helps to relieve the pain and pressure in your chest.
