Cardiologist Visit

It was good. Very good.

I knew my weight was really high and I wouldn’t look at the scale, but finally did record it. But the good news, for once I didn’t get fussed at — I had already complained about edema and was already exhibiting it. So bad, the nurse practioner wrote a script for Lasix on the spot.

She said take it until I stop losing weight — though I might have to stop it sooner — good thing I am on spring break as I have spent a great deal of time in the bathroom already today.

They said everything looked good and not to bother with a stress test until next year. That will sure make the insurance people happy! And me too as they are a pain in the butt.

Oh, and the blood pressure was 128 over 74. Not too shabby!
