Well, I had a pretty interesting day. I had a doctor's appointment because I have been having some chest pain. I thought I pulled a muscle or something while having the twins. Dr. Wineinger started feeling around on me (hehe) and felt a tender spot on my calf with a knot. So he sent me out to the hospital to get an ultrasound on my leg. He was checking for DVT (a.k.a Deep Vein Thrombosis, a.k.a a freakin' blood clot!!!). He said the chest pain may be caused by little pieces of the clot breaking off and going to my heart !! WTF?!?! Well, the ultrasound didn't show a clot (thank God!). So I just have a pulled chest muscle and a sore calf which are unrelated. He put me on an anti-inflammatory and we called it a day. Whew..am I ever relieved. That was pretty scary. I also think I may have sleep apnea (where you stop breathing in your sleep) and may be doing a sleep study here before to long to check for that. What a pain!!
