    Update on how I feel

    Talked with a former chiropractor yesterday. He thought I looked a lot better than when he last saw me. That made me feel good.

    I actually feel better now. It's hard to believe that an erratic heart could make you feel that tired. He did not mention if my heart was enlarged. I don't and haven't eaten an excessive amount of fatty foods. I prefer lite meals. It's a shame it couldn't be caught earlier. I knew I had palpitations but the heart behaved during every test but this years.

    But back to feeling better. The chest isn't tight any more. The medicine is also making a difference. I don't feel like I'm carrying a 1000 lb weight around.

    Just need to get over the cumadin/warfarin issues and the allergy to Xarelto. Wish I could sell those pills without getting charged with distributing drugs without a license. I'm also still showing symptoms since the Xarelto is a time-released med. I'm lucky the allergist put me on a good antihistamine or it could have been worse.

    I called the LifeWatch people this morning and actually spoke with someone that wasn't reading from a script. We have a real conversation. He'll look into my concerns, is sending me a car charger, and reset the machine to indicate which electrode was faulty. He also took down my complaints about the ineffective gel-glue that is supposed to stay 3 days, but only lasts a few hours. I could tell the other techs were reading from a script.

    I'll have to tell you about the other techs and my need to take a shower without the cops busting down my door because the machine doesn't register my heartbeat. I am sure my file is flagged and labeled as "crazy woman" at this point.

    It sure makes a difference when you are talking to a real thinking human being, doesn't it? Glad you are feeling better!

    Glad you are feeling better, and that others notice?

    Hey, join the crazy lady club! I'd rather be crazy and alive than the alternative (sane and dead????? ).

    So...you can't get a refund on those meds? DANG!

    No, no refund. I thought of advertising on Craig's list for a split second until reality set in and I realized that I would probably get arrested.

    I'll figure something out.
