Cardiologist

Just a quick update.  I saw the cardiologist today...finally!  It was a little bit of a hassle getting in because you have to have a referral from your primary care doctor.  But I don't have one, I just have an oncologist. So getting a referral from Lakeview Hospital from the doctor that discharged me, whose name is ???  Anyway, Mat made lots of phone calls to figure it out and got a referral to the right place.  

The doctor was funny.  He asked a lot of questions and we gave all the right answers.  He listened to my heart and lungs.  Other than a pulse that was on the high end of normal, he couldn't come up with anything that was wrong.  He looked perplexed when I gave him my health history, like he's asking himself how I made it through any of it!  All the data on every echocardiogram looked great.  The last thing to do is a stress test, which I'll do in about 6 weeks.  We put it off because my chemo on Friday should go through the insurance by then, so we shouldn't have any more out of pocket expenses once the chemo copay assistance goes through.
