Doctor update

Wed, 10-20-2004 - 8:10pm
Although I failed my stress test there were no significant abnormalities or damage and they do not bbelieve that I am in heart failure now based on my test. They said I am headed for trouble if I do not stop smoking and reconditioned so I will have to get busy walking and quiting smoking.
We were very happy to hear this news. I still have a problem getting enough oxygen but they now think it is due to my long time smoking.
I got a big lecture from the Dr. and she said I should look at this as a second chance at a quality life. She believes that I can reverse my condition If I quit smoking and get some excersise.
I was so happy I just kept laughing from relief and happiness. G/f was so happy she kissed me right in the parking lot. A good day for me today!
Now I have to start getting serious.
But for now we hope to watch the Sox beat the Yankies!
I tried to post this once but it never appeared so if it comes up twice that is why.
Over and out,
Hugs,
Laurie

Awwwwwww thank you Gigi,
I would like to meet all you guys too IRL.
I cannot tell you enough how upsetting it was to be told by 3 doctors that I was in CHF.
I know I am not completly out of the woods but I am going to have a better quality of life as long as I make these major lifestyle changes.
It should not be to hard considering the alternatives.
Thank you for being so sweet and getting me through the other night when I was so low.
xoxoxo,
Laurie
