About My Doctors Appointment




Hello my sweet bloggie friends, praying that you are all doing well. Well, Eddie took the day off yesterday, to take me to my Doctors appointment. I am now legally blind, so I cannot drive. The appointment was with my Endocrinologist, she treats my diabetes, and thyroid problems. She did blood work to test my thyroid, diabetes, and to see how much kidney damage I have. She has scheduled an appointment for me the last week in August with a cardiologist, she wants the arteries in my neck, and heart checked. I already have a twenty percent blockage in the front of my heart, she thinks it may have gotten worse. She is also concerned about the arteries in my neck possibly having a blockage. Recently, my hair has really started thinning on the top, and my eyebrows are almost totally gone. She said, she thinks that is due to my out of control thyroid, but she is running tests to make sure. Did I feel discouraged after this appointment? Of course I did, I"m only human. But, my down mood did not last long, all I had to do, was talk to my Saviour. He wrapped His loving arms around me, and told me to rest securely in His arms. So, that is what I am going to do. I love you all.

Denise, you have been the most loving and caring person and listened to me complain about tiny little things I'm going through when you are going through this. I'm so sorry. How could I ever stay down after reading the inspirations you write here daily. You encourage me so much. I only hope I can encourage you and lift you up as much as you have me. You are in my heart and prayers.
