Yep starting in July as that month is filling with appointments. Have 2 more appointments with my cardio doctor I haven't seen in 7 years.
He wants to start with some test I had before to see if my current issue is anything heart related.
Next...off to see a new Doc as a primary doctor since I haven't had one in years and maybe he will look at my issue from other causes.
Just need to get my energy back to where it was a month ago!

Now, Al, that's a crackerjack idea. Multiple choice tests. I'm going to mention that next time I go to the VA. That bunch is crazy enough to try it.

I have surgery scheduled for Tuesday the 30th and I have to get an Covid19 test this AM and show negative results or they will not operate.
Wonder if I was dyeing what they would do.

Wife and I got our Covid 19 test results yesterday and all negative. Feeling better today and moving around doing more things.
Still have a Doc appointment coming up next week to find out where this weakness is coming from.
My cardio Doc gave me a prescription for BP medication to lower it even though my at rest BP is just in the low 120's over78.
First thing I read on the medication sheet and on the bottle...."May cause dizzyness" and from some research that is the case with most people.
Now I don't need to take anything for more dizzyness right now! Will wait and see what other cause might be found.

Drove to the Covid testing place. We were told to stay in the car while two hefty nurses dressed like Space Invaders rammed a stick a long way up my nose and then twisted it. It was mildly uncomfortable to say the least. They will email me the results.

Yep I could breathe a bit better after the nose clean out!

Feeling a good bit better today and ran the weed whacker for about 15 minutes this evening since weeds were starting to fill in the shrub beds.
Felt better and not as tired after doing it. Sometimes just sitting around makes you feel tired.
Slowly getting back little at a time.

There's worse places they could stick it...
