Long time no post!! Doctors orders!!

Hi guys, I have not been on in a while because my doctor thought that I was feeding the fire. She felt I read too much and wanted to focus on trying to put it out of my mind, easier said than done. Things have been chaotic since we last talked. My father-in-law had a heart attack and triple bypass surgery, he spent 2 weeks in the hospital. Then on Wednesday my Daddy had a heart attack during a heart cath. He then had another heart cath done on Monday and it was successful this time. His mother artery was 100 percent blocked. I have been hospital bound for weeks now. I went to the heart doctor yesterday for my results on my heart monitor.All my flips, flops and thumps were benign. Thank God!!! I go for my sleep apnea test tonight. I am totally thrilled. NOT!!!! She wanted me to move my meds to different times so that I can keep it from wearing off from my next dose. I miss you guys. I will keep you updated. Oh yeah she told me to execise everyday. Start out walking and then I can ride a bike. She feels it will help releave some of the anxiety and pump my adreniline some. I have lost 39 pounds and I am feeling good about myself now. I can't keep my clothes on but it is a good feeling to know that I have been successful at one thing. Love you all, Keep me and my family in your thoughts and prayers.
Love and hugs
Karen aka Sunshine

Karen,

We were getting ready to send the troops out to find you!  I know what you mean about reading too much....it can get us into trouble.  If you just want to drop by and say HI or tell us about your day, please don't hesitate....we missed you too!!

I'm sorry your family has had so much to deal with.   Hopefully, much brighter days are ahead---filled with sunshine : )

Glad to hear the monitor returned good results!  GL on the sleep study.  A huge congratulations on the weight loss and starting to exercise!!  You're a great inspiration to many!  Keep smiling and take care.
