More News is.. okay news...

Well, on Thursday my dear hubby came home and visited for the day while he had off on Friday from his rotation in Friday! SO, that was FABULOUS!! Luckily for me, somewhat unfortunate for him, I was able to schedule my stress test for Friday morning so that he could be there with me to support me. Well, for the most part everything went fine... I did the stress test and passed with flying colors. The doctor said he could tell I used to be a swimmer because I had such a steady heart rate. All was going well until the end of the test when I began to cough, couldn't catch my breath, and thought I was going to die. The doctor got out his stethoscope and listened intently and was able to detect a bronchial spasm, which just means that my airway is severely tightening and limits the flow of air to my lungs. So, the stress test went well, which is great news, because it puts less emphasis on the chance that I may have a heart problem. The unfortunate part is that we still don't have an answer and I will need to see a pulmonologist next after my next doctor appointment which isn't until the beginning of May. My hope and tentative plan is to at least get to the pulmonologist before our honeymoon, but we will just have to see.
