Running Journal
Greetings I get the verdict Monday @ 4pm. I went 12 years without any medical care, somewhere along the line I developed a condition in which my Adrenal glands pump Adrenalin in to my body constantly, my body adapted to this condition even though I had BP well over 200/100 I just went strolling along whistling Dixie. Then came the day when blood came out of me where it shouldn't. This got me to the Dr's office quick and other test and exams were my new pastime. My current meds are Tricor 145mg, Spironlactone 150mg, Norvasc 10mg, Diovan 80mg. I have been stable for some time now with BP in the 105/60 range. About a month ago while mowing the lawn I found myself struggling to breathe and had to sit down for awhile and then got up finished the job. Over the next 2 days it felt as if I were wearing an ACE bandage around my chest. Having just relocated to FL and knowing that what I was feeling was far from normal I sought out a Cardiologist who would see me ASAP, took 2 days but I found one. More exams and a stress test has been completed, the stress test only lasted 4 min, he stopped it before I even started to feel anything. I'm bracing for the worst, so what I am looking for is if any of you know someone who has posted a running journal of their pre and post operative experiences? Thanks for any information that you send to me. G
