So....after 18 hours of stressing over the EKG that indicated a possible old heart attack, my cardiologist has reviewed everything and determined that the EKG was picking up my Epstein's Anomaly and not a heart attack. So she is Has cleared me for surgery.
The second set of xrays still indicate a nodule ( of unclear visibility ) on my right lung. Drs. Seem to feel that it can wait...... further testing later.......It doesn't pose a problem right this minute.
So tests are over for this week. Thank God! Seems as if all tests had something to stress me out. The over 50 saga is what they call it. If you live a half of a century and you have to have things looked at too closely, they will always manage to find something.
So.....Ativan and I are hanging in there.
Tony has been with me constantly. He needs to take some Ativan too. He is very stressed.
Joined a support group online.
The Brain Aneurysm Foundation Support Community
It has been great. I asked a few questions and got immediate replies. A whole community of people having gone through the process or starting the process like me.
So here I am.........
First say to yourself what you would be;
and then do what you have to do.
