Unplanned rest day for me. I passed out at the doctor's office today and again in the ambulance ride. I have not been feeliing well, stomache, headache, and dizziness. It would be my fourth visit this month trying to just feel well. I was talking to my doctor when I blacked out. My doctor called an ambulance. In the ambulance I passed out again. When I woke up they said my heart had irregular rythym. My pulse was dropping to 70/35. I was pretty scared. There was all these cardiologistis and and putting all these monitors on me. They said I might need a pace maker, and I was scared. They said my heart rythms were really off and I was worried. I got two kids that need me. Never had a history of heart problems. But tonight the doctor said lets just wait and see all the tests before we decide. I get to run on the treadmil for some of my tests. Just as well the ground is covered with snow.

Well I gotta go, doc said I only get a few minutes on the computer. Smile

MTA: Appreciate your health. Tell you family you love them. Renewed my will to live I tell you. Scew my base.

Doc said not to think about that for now.. wait till tests get back. Did I say was in the doctor on Saturday morning and they told me it was anxiety? When I came too the first time the nurses from Saturday was there and they had that look like "shit we missed something big."

Doc is a runenr and the nicest guy, he even offered to drive my car home from the clinic. DH works at hospital so we have lots of friends to help.
