I'm going for a blood test on Thursday. Jessie said she is coming with me on Monday for the cardiology tests. I'm not sure that will work. I think it may take several hours. I'm having an EKG, an echo cardiogram, a cardiac consultation to see if I can take a stress test, and a chest x-ray to see the size of my heart.
They are thorough up here!!! I think I will know whatever I need to within the next 2 weeks.
I'm watching Dr., Phil right now and they're talking about a lack of energy, etc. associated with menopause. I'm already on a very low dose of FHT, which I just cut down to 3/week. I have been on them for 12 years now and really do not want to continue for too long. Bioidentical hormones sound pretty safe, but I have symptoms that are not helped by that kind. (Or so I was told).
Truthfully, I do not trust doctors 100%. I have seen diagnoses match the specialist you see way too often. I have also been told so many different things about the same issue by different doctors. Medical science is not an absolute.
I do think I trust an EKG, etc. though - so we will see.
