It has been a week since my last post, I know. Mostly, it is because I really didn't have anything to say.
Now I do.
Did you miss me?
Last night I had my first sleep study. It really wasn't as bad as I thought it might be. Sure, the wires and all were a bit uncomfortable and so was the bed, but I got through it.
Until they woke me up.
That was when they informed me that I wasn't going home yet. I got a trip to the ER instead.
It seems that around 4am I had a 4-second pause in my sinus rhythm and that worried the test people. So, I got to spend about 4 hours in the ER instead of going to my doctor's appointment. So, it was EKGs, blood work and x-rays for me. All were good, so off we went to the cardiologist's office across the street. Now I am wearing a very fashionable halter heart monitor for 24 hours. Hopefully, all is good.
So that was my exciting night/morning. I know you're jealous now.
Now I do.
