Foxymoron, for a long time I have not been feeling well, low energy, shortness of breath, pressure and at times chest pain - Rang my doctor one day about the abnormal ECG's I had had - and he said go straight to hospital - Sounds like you have a blockage - then he spoke to Ali on the phone and told her to take me there and grab things I needed because it might be that I needed to have a blockage cleared. he was being a good doctor - but with our family history I freaked...even for me to go near a hospital increases BP and pulse and I have panic attacks - But poor Ali was really upset and almost ran into the back of a van...she has never done that with me in the car. We let Melissa know because she is in Sydney and a part of our very small family. I was amazed how well they treated me...everyone was nice! They checked over some things and I was released but with a few more tests to follow - there is something wrong there but the doc thinks it might be Gall bladder or other...
I have been under a lot of stress for a long time I guess ...but its more easy to tell someone not to stress than to do it yourself.
A scary few days but am feeling calmer now... what will be...I guess I was scared when my GP said certain things because it was exactly what happened to mum who died suddenly only about 6 yrs older than I am now... and I know the girls have had enough to deal with. I know I must look after myself a bit better. Although I don't do too much wrong really. I think it was just the growing and constant tiredness which has effected my fitness...
I haven't been posting much for a while because I just don't seem to feel I can write anything of length or interest...am not depressed at all, and quite happy in my own way... will get a few things sorted hopefully and get myself back again

How scary for all of you, it must have been horrible especially after what you've been through.
Hope it all gets sorted it out and you are feeling better. Thanks for telling me.

Jeepers MC, God was watching out for you though, and fancy finding a good doctor like that. He sounds unusual.
There are no blog rules about frequency you know. Watch a few funny DVDs instead, and soothe your soul. love from sunny Ballarat.
