Thank you so much, Eagle! That’s so sweet. Considering I have anxiety about hospitals and medical things (mainly just the lack of control!) I’m nervous but doing really well. I did take some of my as needed anxiety meds tonight and I’m sure they are helping, but I’m feeling good and even excited. The day is finally almost here and I’m so hopeful. Compared to how I felt before the venogram/angiogram (that really freaked me out for a variety of reasons) I am surprisingly calm because I know I’m in good hands.
I had to stop the plavix two weeks ago, and that has been very illuminating. I feel so awful without it. I had several episodes where I was doing very mild/moderate exercise — a leisurely bike ride and gardening — when I felt so dizzy and my head was throbbing. It was so frustrating to be experiencing that again and I just cannot live my life that way! Have you found any relief from any medications or treatments? Hang in there!
I will be keeping everyone updated on my recovery and I’m hoping for the best!
