As The Song Goes...

It is well. It is well.

Just a quick update because I've go a lot of things to catch up on...

The cardiologist is human! Thank goodness SOMEONE took the time to actually listen to my concerns, explain their concerns and see if we could reach some mutually agreeable plans. Strings got pulled (and a couple of employees gave up their lunch - THANK YOU!) and I was able to get in for an exercise echo cardiogram yesterday. That test went fine - of course the esophageal spasm started up again and sent everyone into a tizzy for a little bit. My heart is fine, it just beats to it's own rhythm. Ha Ha - haven't I always tried to do things a bit different from everyone else?

We'll do some follow up related to the treatment of the spasm, see if the irregular rhythm corrects itself (which it does in a great majority of benign cases). Many, many people walk around with this rhythm every day and don't even know it. Heck, I didn't even know it until we decided to make sure the belly pain wasn't heart pain. I've started treatment for the spasm. And wouldn't you know, the simple fact I had answers instead of fears I was able to sleep and sleep well last night - 10 hours! What a luxury.

Thank you for the prayers, good thoughts, emails and phone calls.

Truly, it is well with my soul!
