So, went back to the doctor for my follow-up this am. Ran around on a treadmill for a while, had wires and was subjected to poking and prodding. So, other than needing more exercise everything appears normal. Talking with the doctor yet again (he is only around for a few moments at a time) I postulated my theory that my other doctor friend had come up with. (which is looking to be more and more correct) and he paused for a moment, and said "its a strong possibility" and then left. Because doctors can never be wrong. He came back, and looked over my blood work they did on thursday. Apparently I had very high levels of Catecholamine in my body from stress. One of the supplements that i take can prevent the brake down of this stress hormone. So, in a nutshell, it was like i was on a huge amount of caffein for about 24 hours. Now that everything has settled down, I'm back to normal.

I was really concerned that this was a mysterious ailment that had surfaced out of nowhere, and that this could have permanent implications for me. Its now looking less and less like that is the case. I still should manage what i do to my body a little better as im starting to become an old guy.

So, how much does peace of mind cost?
4,328.64 $ OMFG.

Then they have the nerve to tell me to take it easy... I HAVE TO GO TO WORK RIGHT NOW.
