I hope they'll like where they are going. do we get to keep the pillows? that way Sally will come too.
test results: (thanks sue for asking)
I wish I knew what they meant. -). my dr. is on vacation so I had them faxed to me.
'final impressions'
Normal stress echocardiogram.
Negative stress ecg.
Above average functional capacity.
Aypical chest pain with stress....
which takes me back to low red blood cell count. I'm sharing this because I wish I would have known about it 3 months ago & don't want any of you to go through it if you don't need to.
from assorted sites:
"The oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood is, therefore, decreased. Persons with anemia may feel tired and fatigue easily, appear pale, develop palpitations and become unusually short of breath."
"The signs and symptoms of anemia include:
weakness or fatigue
dizziness
headache
shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
chest pain or palpitations
ringing in the ears
feeling chilled "
I had all of these, at almost any level of activity. I started taking iron supplements I think in late Jan., obeying my little small voice. even with that, on 4/4 the levels were abnormally low. So in Nov.-Dec. when I trained much too hard for my newbie state, I was probably very anemic, it could make sense that I crashed hard.. I assume the supplements were why I was able to start running again a little. all my guesses, nothing official.
There were a couple little trace regurgitations & a trivial pericaridal effusion, but trace & trivial is ok i hope.
thanks for listening.
hb henrun! ditto patty's thought.
hugs to all boston bound.
