Saturday 01-22-05: Got up around 6:00 am. Got dressed and took off to Indy for a Sale at CompUSA then I met up with Bill and we went to eat at Hooters then we went to his house to work on Computer. I then left there and came back across 70 to NewCastle and stopped at WollyWorld and then went for a small drive in that area and then I stopped at Goody's to do some more shopping and then left there and went to McDonalds for a fry to help my throat because I am not feeling well at all and then I came back home. I am home now bundled up and working on computers and not feeling well at all. I hate being SICK. Well I went and laid down around 5:00 and slept till 9 or so and woke up all sweaty and nasty. Took a shower and feel a little better, but still tired and throat is sore and wore out. But not running a temp anymore. I am now just relaxing hanging out working on computer. Just kind of down today. I think part of it is sick and part of it is just missing someone. Other then that everything ok. I guess I need to explain about my meds so people know what was up. I had a Heart Cath when I was a Freshman in high school. They found that I have a narrowing in my Aorta right where it curves down away from the heart. They put me on meds and 4 years later (my senior year) they did another Cath and nothing had changed or gotten worse. So they kept me on my meds and just monitored it more and more from that time. I then have been off and on going to the Doc's to have it monitored and I have had some tests at the hospital off and on for 1 day at a time so it was no big deal to anyone. They said it is still there and that is why my legs get cold really easy and that I don't have very good blood flow to my legs. They wanted to do some more tests that would involve a stay in the hospital and I have not let them do this. I recently figured that I was sick of these meds all the time so 2 months ago with out anyone knowing I stopped everything. I basically kept it monitored with out anyone knowing and I went to the docs and had a friend there take my blood pressure and it was pretty well. So I went back the other day everything was checked out and so far so good. They are contacting the hospital to get my records so they can see them. I am to check my pressure often and let them know if it changes. BUT so far so good. So I am going day by day with out my meds now. I have also had some other things going on that in my life that I am dealing with and I hope in time that is near it will be a lot better off also. That is basically my story about the meds for my heart and things. My other option is to go into the hospital and have that part of my aorta cut out and replaces with a fake piece and then go from there. But that is not an option to me right now no way. So I will go one with the side effects of not having it fixed. WOW I haven't really talked about that to anyone but 1 person and she isn't in my life anymore even as a friend so I cant talk to her about it. I haven't even said anything to my family about it or the tests or anything lol. But I guess after putting it here they will know hehe. Anyway on a lighter note, how are you all doing.
