…or not, as t’were. Saw one of the big round X-Ray machines at the Denver VA hospital again for a coronary CT scan last Tuesday. It’s unbelievable how many X-rays I’ve had for joint and heart problems in the past three years. If the Coronary condition doesn’t kill me, radiation-induced cancer probably will. So a week later and no word about the scan from the VA. Wonder if they are reeling from recent fiascos. Hopefully no news is good news…
I started taking Lodine again, with nitro at the ready. After 10 days on it I do feel better joint-wise, but can also feel an increase in circulatory congestion in terms of upper chest discomfort, compared to the OTC Naproxin anti-inflammatory. No acute episodes yet. I suppose I will call them tomorrow and see if anyone has any update information. Maybe I’m just a normal 55 year-old hypochondriac.
