Well, my tests have come back (the echocardiogram I took on March 29), and it looks as if I may have an interatrial (or intra-arterial) septal aneurysm. I don’t know yet if this is serious or not. I’ve contacted a cardiologist at Jefferson in Philly, the same guy who put the stent in my dad in ’91 when it was still experimental. I need to get a “contrast study” done, which I think is the test with the dye injection.
You’d better believe I checked my life insurance out ASAP. I don’t plan on popping off today or tomorrow, but I can’t afford to have Denise and the kids tank financially if I’m suddenly gone.
Otherwise, I’m pretty Zen about the whole thing. But I did start my diet again to lose this last 50 pounds……
