I'm back home!!!

First thank you all for your well wishes, I guess they helped :)

So after I turned up there at a quarter past 7 this morning, the doctors came in and took my blood pressure again (which is still too high but not as high as yesterday), then they took ounces of blood again for further testing (diabetes etc.) - I really like sugar but even for me that stuff I had to drink for testing ... yuck!!!!! I thought my tastebuds would explode in sugary sugarness *shudders*.
Anyway, after that I had to do the CAT scan and did so while listening to SMAP and JYJ. Strangely enough my inner organs seem to be doing extremely well - even my liver that was damaged by the chemo therapies earlier in the 2000's is looking okay-ish again. Heart and veins, aorta etc. all look okay and no tears or other damage to see *YOKATTA!!!*
Then my blood tests came back and for someone who weighs as much as me (let's they you could make one and a half ppl out of me) I do seem to have good blood results. Low cholesterol, no diabetes, no high count of white blood cells, nothing that points to a serious infection or illness of any of the inner organs.

So it is definitely not the heart and I need to see a normal doctor if the pain recurrs again (which it already did) So on Monday I will be at a normal doc to see if it is indeed a nerve or muscle that is misbehaving.

To tell you the truth I was really scared shitless. You cannot imagine the thoughts running through my head .. like what will happen to our dogs if I died ... or what would happen to our farmhouse etc. I even updated my last will and testament and wrote down an advance directive (no DNR etc.)

Again, THANK YOU for your well wishes. You are the greatest.

And now I will log off and cuddle with our dogs and His Hubbiness™

YOKATTA! I am SOOOO relieved! I mean, it sounds like your body is in very good condition (especially good news about your liver, etc.) so maybe it was just a muscle thing??? could it be stress-related or something like that! ya, I bet you were scared, it SOUNDS really scary! *hugs and hugs*

I'm relieved too ... it could be stress-related ... I think the whole thing with Japan had to do with it as well as working in the garden. But I shouldn't complain .. at least I could go to the nearest medical center and got checked up .. ppl in the Tohoku area can't.

Yay, finally some good news^^
I've really had enough of bad ones recently.
Glad you seem to be all good :D Hope it's just a muscle and that it'll calm down again soon.

Thank you ... yeah I hope so too. The pain is really sometimes excruciating ... I really could live without this shit :s But at least it's not the heart, which is a huge relief.

I'm very happy for you *big hugs* It must be a massive relief. It's terrific to have a good results of the tests too. Yes, you need to get some TLC from Mr Scottishlass. Rest easy, girl!

To tell you the truth, I was really surprised that my results are that good. I even asked them if these were my own results LOL

Thank you :) And me too ... I really thought it would be something to do with the heart and that wouldn have been bad :s

I am so glad that everything turned out okay - I hope they can find out what's amiss soon. Good luck and best wishes.

Thank you :) Yeah I also want to know what's wrong. I have been in constant pain for a week now and I can only take so many painkillers :s
But at least it is not the heart and that is already a great relief. A friend of mine who is only a couple of years older indeed has heart issues since the beginning of this year, so I was alerted.

Thank you :) I'm still in pain but at least I know it is nothing serious like smaller heart attacks or something.

Oh man, that's such a relief, bb! :DD
I hope it's nothing serious and you feel all better again. But the good news is good. &hearts /hugs

Thank you :) Yeah I'm really glad and a wee bit more relaxed since they told me it is not a heart attack. The pain is still there and I'm on pain killers, but at least now I know I won't die from it.

Yokatta indeed!

Glad to hear that there was nothing scary in the results.
I don't think there can be anything more agonizing than a health scare.

Hopefully they will find out what is giving you bother and be able to relieve you of some of the pain you've been having.

Thank you :) I hope so too. It is disconcerting but at least one scare is lifted and it is not the heart or any other inner organ .. so it must be a muscle or nerve and that I can manage more easily. I feel hugely relieved and can deal with the pain better somehow.

Now that the fear of it being a vital organ is gone, I am sure some of that anxiety must have lifted. Spend some nice time this weekend with His Hubbiness and the dogs

Ich hoffe, dass es dir bald besser geht bzw. du rausfindest, was es mit den Schmerzen auf sich hat. Alles Gute

Danke!!! Sie hatten ja gedacht, dass es vielleicht auch eine RippenfellentzĂŒndung sein könnte, aber das war es dann auch nicht. Vor ein paar Jahren habe ich mir auf der Seite mal zwei Rippen angebrochen, daher könnte es vielleicht kommen. Deswegen muss ich zum Internistischen Hausarzt. Ich hoffe sie finden den Grund, denn die Schmerzen sind noch da und tun scheisse weh ... aber wenigstens bin ich jetzt entspannter weil ich weiss, es ist kein Infarkt. Ist halt eben ein Muskel der sich so zusammen zieht, dass ich fast keine Luft mehr bekomme.
