Insurance approval has finally come. What an exciting moment! Dealing with the doctors, administrative assistants and the insurance company has been a pain but I am finally moving forward. I will get to have my Cardiac MR, blood work and hopefully Hotler monitor (this is still another ongoing insurance struggle). As I had explained previously, I am still experiencing a lot of unwanted pains so I am really looking forward to having these tests done. Some friends expressed how awful tests are, but I only partially agree with this. I would much rather have the tests run to start ruling out potential problems and hopefully to help narrow in on a real answer. I don't mind tests so long as they don't confuse the doctor even more...
RUNNING
I got to run for about 3 miles yesterday. I did this run a couple of months back and I am happy to say that it felt a lot better this time around (I think it helped that it was probably 20 deg. cooler this time). The exercise keeps me sane. Before the run I was having a lot of chest pain but I knew I needed to get out, so I went running anyway and the pain only lessened. I am still having trouble recovering - I seem to have some trouble cooling down and my heart rate doesn't rest the way I am used to - but it still felt good. On another note...I am so tired. Where did my energy go. This is one simple joy of life that I miss dearly. I look forward to a day when I get 8 hours of sleep and feel refreshed. Instead I get 9.5 hours of sleep and I am exhausted, my son just doesn't understand and it hardly seems fair:(. I am confident that one day my energy will return!!
