I went to the doctor yesterday, and it was less informative than I would have liked. He listened to my heart and said it sounded normal-which is good because the main point of the visit was to make sure I didn’t have any underlying weirdness going on. Sometimes it feels like my heart beats irregularly. Anyway, so then he sent me for blood work to check my thyroid, and he’s making me wear a heart monitor for two weeks. Blood work I understand…but a heart monitor? Really? For two weeks? I think that’s a little overkill, but the fact is that I am not the doctor, so I don’t get to make those decisions. Geeze, all I really wanted him to say was, “There’s no problem with your heart. You’re healthy. You probably had some sort of strange panic attack. Next time it happens, try __________.” I suppose it’s a good thing to rule out all any major problems, so I should just appreciate that he’s being thorough.

Kristen, I hope you are okay, have fun with the heart monitor. And also, I have come to find in my life that it usually does not go how I would plan, and it is hard to not have things go your way or have what you want, but hang in there, you will hopefully soon see that God takes care of us and how things end up are better than we would or could have planned them. So hope that helps.
so glad everything is okay. health problems are never fun.
