So far, so good...

OK, so the heart tests and the cardiologist appoinment has come and gone. Th results? Well, I'm not dying, at least not any quicker than the rest of you haha....or at least not from my heart.

I do have a murmur for sure, but my heart itself is healthy, so the murmur is either one of those run-of-the-mill murmurs that mean nothing, or it's being caused by something else.

One of the tests they did was to take an ultrasound of my heart from all different angles....it was cool seeing it on the screen, but then I'd freak that I was actually seeing my heart in real-time, so my pulse would quicken....which of course I could see on the screen....so I eventually passed the time staring at the second hand on the clock instead.

I was told to get myself a family doctor however and to always keep in the back of my mind that the murmur is there, so in case anything out of the ordinary happens, I just don't write it off as nothing....which to be honest I have a habit of doing, which I blame mostly on my high pain threshold.

All-in-all though, good news. Now I just need to see about getting into the clinic and finding out what might be causing it. My money is still on the overactive thyroid theory, but we'll see I suppose.

PS I hate the gowns at the Dumont....felt like I was wearing an ugly toga
