Been an interesting day...Met my new Heart Doctor..Like him..he is straight forward. Gave me the choice between getting a stress test or a catherization. I chose the Catherization as if I took the stress test like before..I STILL had to have a catherization...so why not go ahead and get it over with...BUT won't be able to get one until September or sooner if someone cancels.
He called me in some lacex to try and get the swelling down in my right foot and my middle roll...LOL The worst thing there was having to park so far from the door and not taking my walker. I was in so much pain. He looked at my leg, and decided it probably was NOT a blood clot.
Left there, and went to the Walk In Clinic..Orthodonic office. Sat there from 11:50 until 3pm. Had x-rays of my leg, and the doctor started squeezing my calf..I almost kicked her with my other foot it hurt soooo BAD! She was trying to see if it was my achilles or not. If it was, I would have to have surgery. But she decided it was some muscle in my calf. No idea what she called it. She gave me a boot to wear. It IS helping, but rather weird feeling. LOL Since I drove there, they couldn't put it on me, so I figured it out once I got home. Had a wheel chair when I was at the Clinic, but with all the walking I did BEFORE I got there, the calf started cramping...but now that I have the boot on...it is better. Keep me in your prayers.
