After blood work twice, EKG, chest X-ray, and finally an exercise stress test, I was sent home in good shape. Another heart scare. Another time it turned out to be nothing. Well, not nothing, just not something to worry about. So I won't. I probably won't go back again with the same pain in another year or two, if I remember this time....

Did a little shopping for groceries on the way home, including getting a salad and some chicken...falling off the plant wagon. I had not eaten nor had anything to drink in 24 hours and was shaking and headaching so I went for quick and easy. The orange juice was good, too!
Arrived home and remembered I had planned to turn the dehydrator on this morning to finish the apples I had put dehydrating yesterday but turned off at bed time. I checked them and turned them on again. They need a few more hours. I am going to chance waking up in the night and shutting the dehydrator off then.
It probably was a good thing to have spent this day as I did. I am sorry for those who knew about it and were worrying. The one good thing that came out of it was that I learned (in the stress test) that I can walk a lot harder than I normally do. That is a good thing. I hope I remember that tomorrow and go for it.
Well, happy trails to all! I am going to hit the hay now...
Speaking of trails... I can confirm that we can walk (hike) a lot harder than we think. Ive proved that out here in the Rocky mountains. My pace is much faster than most, and I love to chew up elevation gain. Good genes Mom ;). Glad to hear you're well.
