One Week, WHAT?!

Finally, late yesterday afternoon the nurse from my primary's office called with my results.  The Ct scan was clear and the blood work was in the "normal range".  Good news all around!  At 1pm today I am off to visit the cardiologist.  I'm starting to tire of these all these docs.  I know, I know, no harm in checking.  The point of today's appointment is to hopefully prove that my fainting episodes are caused by blood pressure and not something neurological.  My primary was real big on trying to get answers for what that is going on with my body.  Which I guess is a good thing.  Compared to past docs who couldn't give two stools about what was causing the blood in my stool and making my white blood cell count so high, this is something new for me.  

Funny, when I was at my primary's office last week I had said something along the lines of "Thank you very much Doc."  To which he replied "Oh Stephanie, you can call me Brian"  Um, no no no!  I do not need to be on a first name basis with my doc.  I am not that person.  I do not plan to see him so often that our relationship would be casual enough for me to call him by his first name.  I am not a sickly person.  Nope, not me.  Even with all that is going on.  (Hm, I wonder if I am in some sort of denial here.) 

On another semi related note. . .  I am ONE WEEK out from my next surgery!  Whoa, it seems like only yesterday I was in the surgery floor awaiting to be rolled into the OR.  Oh, how times flies when you're. . .er. . .recovering?!
