Morning BB!
I'm saddened to hear you aren't feeling well but I'm glad to hear you are NOT smoking!!! We both know that won't solve any of your health problems. :) Your post sounds like you are having a tough time but doing the right thing by consulting your physician. I quit smoking in October 2006 and have gained a considerable amount of weight, have a horrible lower back, and developed a nasty case of acid reflux. And on top of all those lovely little ailments, I'm smack dab in the spotlight of menopause. Why, most days I just couldn't be a more fun person to hang out with! LOL (haha) I just try to tackle one problem at a time and my doctor has been wonderfully understanding and patient. Just last week I visited him with a totally bloody right eye. Seems like I coughed really hard (don't even remember coughing) and burst all the blood vessels in my right eye. I looked absolutely gorgeous!!!! And the children I work with were terrified of that eye! Anyway, what I really wanted to tell you was hang in there, keep pushing away at the depression and seeking relief for the gerd, the angiography and anything else that comes your way! I refuse to blame any of my frailties on quitting smoking! Maybe smoking masked things, but now that I've taken off the mask, I love who I am. Overweight, acid reflux, bloody eye and all!!!!
Stay strong!!!!
Debbie :)
