The Old Folks Home

[sourland]

Right now I feel like an 'old folk'. Just mowed the front 'hedge row'. That's what it was until two years ago, and it is sloped and rough. Wore me out. Guess the daily baby aspirin is working. Scraped my left arm, and by the time I was done I had 'arm of blood'.

Good morning OF. Going to Montgomery to get my echo today.
It's 61* with 91% humidity with a high of 86* today.

Clue it's so nice that your duck is bonding with you.

Chick hope you get a few answers to the problem they can fix

Are you on any other blood thinners?

No, just one baby aspirin daily. Cardio work up 3 years ago found 'moderate cardiac insufficiency' (whatever that means as I have no symptoms) due to a leaking aortic valve. Although my BP was normal, cardiologist prescribed daily aspirin and low level BP med. to lessen pressure on heart valve.

After my initial stress test the doctor asked if I had any problems. I answered "Yes.". He stated, "Shortness of breath?" To which I replied, "Heck no, they kept telling me to slow down."

Thanks Ron and Penny. I hope the Dr will be in tomorrow morning to read the tests and let me know something.
