The Randomness that Is My Life Lately

By Karin at 11:02 am on February 27, 2008

• I’ve been stressed. Not sure why, but I have been. It manifested in me being really short of breath and having tightness in my chest. I was convinced something was wrong with my heart again, until it dawned on me that those were symptoms of anxiety. After I realized that, the symptoms abated a lot.

• The one good thing that came out of all of that was that it kicked my butt into going to see a new primary care physician so I could establish myself as a patient and not have to stress if I need a referral to a specialist anymore. That appointment was this morning, and other than the fact that he wants to do bloodwork (ugh!), it went well. If the bloodwork comes back okay, I don’t need to see him for 4-6 months. So we’ll see how that goes.

• LG has a fever today. I can’t really figure out where she would have picked up a bug because she hasn’t really been around anyone other than her grandparents and us this week. She was coughing a bit yesterday, though, and Mike has had a bit of “allergies”, so maybe it was actually a cold in disguise. Don’t think it’s the flu, though, thank goodness.

• I haven’t been posting as much over here, but I have been posting a daily reflection over here for the Lenten season. And I’ve also been posting a daily photo over here for Project 365.

    Here’s to hoping that its just anxiety. I say that like that somehow makes it easier.

    Hmmm…hormones? Winter blues? Oh wait, your winter is ok for the most part, right? Lots of sunshine? That’s one heck of a lotta stress to make you have those symptoms. I sure hope it goes away… :) *hugs*
