As I alwayz say.........another day......another Dr. apt!! Well actually I didn't see a Dr, but this am I had 1 of the follow up test that my Dr ordered! I had PFTs (Pulmonary Function Tests) done. I've been having SOB (shortness of breath) for no known reason, so the cardiologist ordered PFTs. The test wasn't too bad, but they gave me puffs of an inhaler.....which causes me 2 feel jittery!!! I hate feeling jittery......I feel like I'm on "uppers!" Anyway..........talk 2 ya'll later........as my world turns.......

This is amazing.......the fact that I am exhausted just attempting to do basic houshold duties! Does washing clothes make everyone else this tired? I worked yesterday (0730-1600) then went to my cousin's wedding. I got to sleep in a lil this am then I got up & started washing clothes. I was really behind in washing, becuz I didn't do any washing last weekend with all of the other ctivites I had going on! Anyway, I had tons of washing to do this weekend, but didn't start until today. I really need to clean up my room, but after washing the lil one's clothes all day, then taking her to swimming, then washing & styling her hair...I'm pooped!!! This chronic fatique is the pits! & it's annoying!!!! As my world turns......

My appt went well. My BP was a lil elevated but not 2 bad, but as i mentioned i hadn't taken my bp med. He is a very excellent physician. I mean he was empathetic, listened well & overall knows what he's talkin about. I would recommend him 2 anyone.....Dr. Edward Morris. Nothin grossly abnormal jumped out, which is very good. Will still have to have sum follow up tests, but itz all good 4 now......to b con't.......
Well, well, well...another day...another Dr appt! Seeing the cardiologist 2day. My bp has been better but of course of all days 2 4get 2 take my bp med...i 4get 2 take it when i'm seein a heart dr!!! Smh @ myself! Hope i have good results ;-)
