 September 22nd

Last week I started to see progress again. Saw the cardiologist and finally figured out my blood pressure medication. She ordered a stress test and referred me to a pulmonologist. I told you I go to one doctor and get sent to two more doctors. So I have my stress test on 9/30 and see the pulmonologist on 10/16.

This week I only have to see the rheumatologist on Friday. I'm taking a little break this week from PT and the gym before I start kicking ass again next week.

Go Dawgs.

 September 14th

Well last week was full of more challenges. My balance has been really off and my blood pressure has been out of control again. Thank goodness I go to the cardiologist on Thursday. She has got to figure out how to get this under control. I will get back the results from the CT scan on my chest. Praying they didn't find anything too serious.

The Dawgs game yesterday definitely didn't help but thank goodness we won. GO DAWGS!!!

September 5th


Had a great time in Myrtle Beach with Anna, Caleb and the dogs.
I had been feeling frustrated that I hadn't been making any progress with regards to my balance but Anna and Caleb said they noticed progress so I came back fired up.
Personal trainer increased the workouts and challenges. Physical therapist really challenged me this week. I definitely felt is today but it was a good hurt.
Thursday I got to meet Dr. Bradley. He's a rheumatologist. I really like him. Apparently I do have a little arthritis but nothing unusual. He wanted to do some additional blood work so after our appointment I had to go have some lab work done. I swear they took like 10+ tubes of blood. I go back to see him in 2 weeks.
My cardiologist called today to discuss the results from my chest CT scan and it sounds likes some things showed up. I will see her on 9/18.The nurse mentioned something about her wanting me to see a pulmonologist. I swear I go to one doctor and the next thing I know I'm being referred to another doctor.
The best thing is college football is on again. I have my games mapped out for tomorrow.
GO DAWGS!!!

This week has been PT and the gym. Physical therapist and trainer are great. Challenging me!

Yesterday I had an Echocardiogram. Got the results today and they are NORMAL!!! Thank God. Finally some good news.

Tomorrow is a follow up with my regular ENT. Sunday will be another attempt at the CT scan on my heart. This time I have some medication that will help lower my heart rate.

Right now, it's one day at a time but IFGT!

Thank you for all your continued prayers.
