So...I had a stress test this afternoon. Nothing suspected to be wrong, my doctor just wanted one done since my cardiologist never did one with me. The pix looked fine, although my HR & BP were both pretty high. Yes, I think I have white coat syndrome...I was so nervous for the test! Anyway, I get a call back as I'm driving home- my doctor wants me to come back for a nuclear stress test. He said there were too many extra beats & he wants to see if it was just stress/anxiety. I was so scared to go for some reason. I do have Mitral Valve Prolapse so I do get an occasional irregular heartbeat. They say not to panic...um hello???? I'M SCARED!!!! Have to go on July 13th. :(
After talking to several of my Facebook friends I feel better, and I'm sure my doc is just being cautious but damn! Way to throw me for a loop! Just when I'm ready to get back on track with my exercising this happens. I came home so upset I didn't want to run nor did I know if I could. I have no restrictions, but still. So I will yet again skip another day & try to get back on track this week. I mean damn, I've done Insanity, The Asylum and I run!! I've got to be OK...right?? Going out with my girls tomorrow night so I'll shoot for Thursday to get out there...I HAVE to! For my health & my mental state!!!!
As I've said before...it's gonna be a loooong year! Hold on for the ride!
And can I just add how much I LOVE my Facebook family!! They have all been so supportive & caring! There is something to be said for social networking. I've met some amazing people! Xoxo
And on a separate note...happy birthday dad!! :)
