Dh saw a cardiologist today.

Not good news for him. The Dr says it appears my dh has had a silent heart attack. They did an EKG on dh when he had his physical and sent him to the Cardiologist today. On Friday Dh will have a nuclear stress test so they can get a clearer picture of just what is going on. Dh also has blood test done last week and his cholesterol and glucose are too high as well. So he also has to have the 2 hour glucose tolerance test done as well. Dh is pretty bummed but we are not going to worry to much until we get  all the test done and see just what he is facing.


Looks like it is his turn to have a few medical problems. Glad mine are over and I am feeling good again the bladder infection is much better thank heavens.


Took our dgs with us to the Dr office today and I must say I am very pleased he was such a good boy. Now I hope he will be just as good on Friday.

Holy Toledo, Mare! I'm keeping both you and Jim in my thoughts and prayers. I hope it all goes well, and they can take care of his problems.

Hi Lor


Well you know sometimes the news is just not good, but we will face whatever once we have a better idea what is going on for Dh.


Dgs was very good today on friday the test will last at least three to four hours so that is a long time for a 6 and half year old to wait.


Love ya

Mare,


While the news is not great, I'm looking at a different angle here.

Hi Sooze


I agree with you at least we now know there is a problem and just have to find out how to treat it.


Thanks for the hugs. This is going to work out just one of those bumps in the road of life. Not one you want to face but hey sometimes life gives you lemons and you have to make lots of lemonade.


Love ya
