Discussion Old Timers thread 6
#60: September 30, 2020, 02:28:42 PM
I am so sorry to hear that MsMedfly and will add you to my prayers...what a shock to find that out at age 43..and then all the chemo and radiation.....

I keep telling myself...God has a plan.

You take good care of yourself and your loved ones....I have much to be grateful for but BD created in me a tremendous amount of "fear" and anxiety and everything seems bigger than it really is.

I loved this!!!!!

Thanks to all of you. My "virtual" family.

The test results are "better" in that I don't need any medical intervention other than medications and lifestyle changes. I do have a 30% blocked left main artery, no symptoms but it freaks me out a bit. However, had I not gone to see a doctor to be prescribed a medication, I would be none the wiser.

There are lifestyle choices I can make, more cardio exercise (and I already am quite committed to an exercise routine), healthier diet (that's probably the hardest for me) and decrease my stress level.

I am finding that I am "thinking" more about my life...things like this do that and I am grateful in some ways for this wakeup call.

I will met with my therapist again because the mind/body connection is quite strong and needs some delving into .....for my heart and my love for him are intertwined and I am not sure if that is logical or not but it is very real.

My prayers are for each one of you, in these strange and crazy times and I thank you for showing your care and concern to me. God bless you all.

     Glad to hear XYZ!
You will find that the cardio will help with your stress as well. Try and get your heart rate high even if just for a short time. It can make all the difference in the world !
