My blood pressure remains Fine…my heart beat rhythm is Fine…and my EKG was Fine!….. …..Good News!….. Plus…my doctor got more specific about what happened during the “procedure”….. He told my…

**********Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps********** No one wants to hear about cranky/old people’s renditions of their health and surgical sagas….. No one….. …………………so I’ll be brief………………… I’m here….. I’m vertical…… I’m (semi) coherent….. …..(but that’s not related to recent hospital “procedures”)….. Sooooo…I guess it’s fair to say…that’s a plus…right(?)….. Things were cauterized…(again)….. …..I know I shook up a couple surgical nurses when I said I had four titanium joints…..

**********Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps********** So…tomorrow is the Heart “Procedure” Day….. Tra!…La!….. …..I’ve got mixed emotions….. I really want this “procedure” to fix Absolutely Everything….. I really want “it” to be over and in the rearview mirror already….. I Really don’t want to do it….. I’d really prefer to run screaming into the Swamp and hide….. But I’m a grown-up these days…and I’ll behave…sort of…(for the moment)….. “They” said “the procedure” is scheduled to take 3 hours and…

**********Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps********** A ZAP from electric pasture fencing hurts….. People have explained joules/and watts/and volts/and amperage/and other electrical what-nots to me…..

**********Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps********** I’m scheduled for another “procedure”….. Why do they have to de-sensitize you to the obvious…..(?)….. …..”Procedure”…”Surgery”………….potato…pot-ah-to….. I’m currently scheduled for a “procedure”…(good thing it’s not a surgery…that would be scary)….. They’re planning to go into my heart…poke around…light up some nerves (I think with radioactive-stuff)…and use tiny/stainless-surgical-steel “what-nots” to fix the bad things that they find….. …..that’s the housewife’s version of what will be happening this Friday….. …..(Cardiac Ablation—(in a nutshell)….. …..Aging………….It’s a…
