As you probably remember, I am not feeling too well. I failed a stress test and got 2 'stents' inserted around my heart. The problem was that did not seem to help too much. The stronger problem with catching my breath changed to an easier one, but then also a problem arose by just walking around the block. The changed problem was traced to a medication, which changed the heart rate from about 78 to 56 beats per minute. Now I am off this particular medication, but have to wait for 2 to 3 days until all traces of the medication are gone from my body. This is sometimes a bit frustrating and I have bouts of feeling upset. I do hope things will improve even if only slowly, but that they will get better.
On a more positive note: red tulips and a
delightful azalea have joined the blooming parade. In addition forsythia, magnolia, and the first blooming trees now. I already loved the dark rose color last year and I think it is some kind of a plum (Velda thinks it is a cherry – OK, maybe). Don’t really know for sure but as I said I love the tree with its joyous looks.
HA! It seems the beta-blocker mediation has been removed from my body; I am feeling really well again.
