hi gang,
Saw my doctor, cholesterol not good trigs worse. potassium high also. iron levels normal. dr. could see how exhausted i was just waiting for him, and getting there!! bloods rule out CFS, dr. believes blocked arteries, i agree, thus an exercise stress echo and EKG will be done. i am being referred to a cardiologist as well, as he does not want me collapsing on my wedding day!! top dr. if i can not complete the exercise stress echo he has also given me a referral for a cardiac thallium scan-i think this is the dye thing? not exactly happy with sugars, albeit have been very stressed, thus if it does not improve, which it will-i will be back to the endo!!
ah, teeth exam tomorrow, will advise if they will be removing all the top. dr thinks so. it would be nice to lose all of these darn rotten teeth, hopefully the water work operation isn't to far of also. thanks for listening. very tired, jamie

Hello Jamie,

I am sorry you have to go through more testing but if it discovers the cause of your fatigue or any other problems you may be having  it is a good thing.

Thallium stress test   is a type of nuclear scanning test or myocardial perfusion  imaging test. It shows how well blood flows to the heart muscle.  A small amount of a radioactive substance called thallium is injected into the bloodstream. You then have a scan.  This is a very popular test here in USA.

We want you strong and healthy at that wedding that hopefully is in your future. :-)

Gentle Hugs

Kitt

I've noticed you have such a compassionate heart for others. You deserve some yourself!
