I Went To The Doctor

Once again this morning I was having a bit of a pain in the middle of my upper back and some discomfort in the chest area.  I also had a few other complaints, so I called my dd & asked her if she'd like to leave work and take me to a doctor's appaintment that I had just made.  So, she took me in and I had:  blood work, an EKG, a chest x-ray and a CAT scan.  They were checking for a possible heart problem or, because of my medical history, the possibility of blood clots in the lungs.  Thankfully all the tests came out clean and the doc feels that the I'm just having a muscle problem from the shoveling and ice chipping.  I'm much releaved to know that I got a clean slate on the possibilities.  I guess I'll have to leave the ice chipping to the kids and grandkids from now on -- or, at least until I get myself in better shape.  I'm going to take an Advil and rest a while now.

I felt kind of funny going to the doctor because I was so sure that it wasn't
