Slow Week of Posting

 ... and I don't apologize, so, sorry - not sorry!

Actually I have been fairly busy, and still have some more to complete that I have been putting off. Wednesday was a almost a full day at Mayo. Starting at 6:45am I had bloodwork, urine sample, consult w/Nurse, consult with Dr C, and finally, consult with the cardiologist. An angiogram was scheduled for Thursday already, for them to look at any possible calcium deposits in my veins. Then, if needed, provide measures that need to be done. Here's to hoping it can be done while I am on the Waiting List. Well, yesterday was the angiogram, starting at 5:45am. First time I have had one of these. The Wife took off work to be there, I think just in case something did go wrong. She has better medical understanding than my Son, and she had mentioned that if it came down to it, she'd prefer to be the one to make the decisions medically, rather than forcing it on my Son.

It was just fine and nothing seemed to go wrong from what I know. I came to in recovery, the Wife was already seated next to me. They held me there for a good hour or more as they released the bandage on my wrist where they inserted the catheter. I guess it is some kind of 'air bandage' that uses air pressure to keep the site from opening up and bleeding. They could only let a couple psi out about every 10 minutes. It wasn't so tight it hurt, in fact, right then I didn't even feel it. I was in and out of it most of that time. The Wife got the after-care speech and printouts. Then home we went, reaching there just before noon.

I missed my AA home group, but was able to get in on the transplant support meeting at noon. Afterwards, I played video games for a bit. I still need to get minutes out. I NEED to do it today, even if I have received no information about a State Riders Convention this Saturday, at our Post. Sigh.

I think today I will do the minutes this morning, attend my home group at 11am, and then head out to get my hair-cut and then off to the Post. Sounds good anyways. I need a break from my game I am playing. Results from angiogram should show up today. Hopefully all will be ready to go for review next Wednesday.
