Dh saw the cardiologist yesterday

He got good news. Nothing wrong with his heart but a small electrical problem that is probably just because of his age. He upped his chlorestrol meds and suggested when he sees our GP tomorrow that he change his BP meds to get that under better control. Also suggested he get on the treadmill for at least 20 minutes three times a week.


So today he got on the treadmill and darn it he didn't quilt me into getting on it again too. We both feel a lot better when we do so maybe this time we will do a better job of sticking with it.


He will see the cardiologist in one year for a check up.


Now we just wait for Dd to have that baby next month!!


HUGS to all

Smiling here Mare. The kind of news I like to hear. May all continue to go well and he follow the Dr's advice. The Lord does answer prayer in the way we wish...often.

Sounds great, Mare! Glad things are good with DH.


Yep, just need that baby now, huh!


My nephew and his wife gave my older sister her first grandchild Wednesday night. So happy for her. It may be the only one she gets, looks like. And of all people, she really should be a gramma, she loves kids so much. Their last name is Larson, and according to my mom, they haven't named him yet, but are thinking of "Oskar"! Now, these two are well-educated, well-read, architects. Don't you think they may have thought of the consequences of having such an odd name? Go figger!

Hi Red


Yes good news about Dh. He went to our regular Dr today and the blood pressure was better so will stay with this new medication until Jan of next year when the Dr will check him again.


What a name to put on the little guy. Well he will learn to live with it but I agree people should really think about the name they give their children. Congrats to them all grandchildren are so special.


Good to see you girl come around more often miss seeing you post!!


How is the knee doing?


Love

Thanks Doreen we are both very happy about the news. We had a stationary bike for years but after a while we just didn't use it. Before we moved to where we live now we would ride our bikes every morning for 5 miles. The treadmill works for both of us and maybe this winter when it cools down here we will get back on our bikes again.

Love ya
