Well after much thinking on ways to make it happen myself I finally got the nod from my endocrinologist to stop visiting her office. This was just in time for winter weather which makes me determined to avoid driving at all costs. I've had fainting feelings for weeks now and even some wakings where I was sure my heart could have stopped. I'm counting the days until I head back to my hematologist for CBC blood draw and likely more iron infusion.
My main doctor has begun me on treatment for heart attack. Its unclear weather he believes I've already had one or am just showing the signs. Given my history I believe I may have had some sort of cardiac event some weeks ago. So now I am on a aspirin regimen and lisinopril to off set any kidney issues the aspirin would cause. If I were any other person I might not take this preparation seriously enough but having had heart events in my past and panic attacks to bout I don't doubt it. Heart trouble is something on my fathers side of the family. Blood pressure and muscle problems through his father and valve/circulation issues through his mother.
I received closure for a old relationship last week as well. Its seems the life plan completely changed and there was no apology however a agreement to avoid the past. I'm happier with where I am in my education by comparison. Another change is that my main doctor is of the opinion that I have Multiple Sclerosis. I doubt he'd be willing to put that on paper but with it dormant for the most part we are working on my other health issues.
The farthest doctors office from me now is out about 7 miles for the women's doctor. It would be nice to avoid a drive that far before spring. Sad that winters just started and I am already desperate to leave it behind. Part of the reason was a early morning errand yesterday that turned into 3 skids and one spin out into a no parking sign. Luckily all I did was love tap the sign but it unnerved me greatly. With so little snow there's no need for salting except for my van and its new tires.
