Busy day, just NOW getting sat down to eat at almost 3:30pm. Woke up at 6:30am this morning so I could drive mom to her eye doctor appointment at 8:15am. Since she was getting an injection, that took about three hours. Then, shortly after bringing her home, I had to leave again for my 1:20pm checkup appointment at Ochsner with my primary care ( Read more... )

I have a follow-up appointment with my primary care doctor this afternoon concerning the heart tests/Holter monitor I had recently.

The pain I've had in my left arm the past couple of months is getting progressively worse. If I stretch it out too far, or reach up too high, I get a stabbing pain in it, along with hand numbness, that almost makes me want to scream.
