Monitor Results
After waiting all day, the Dr. finally callled me at 4:45 yesterday to give me the results. He said the entire 24 hours that I wore the heart monitor showed no irregular rhythms, just tachycardia (I knew that.) It appears I have a rapid heartbeat that may be due to chemo that is still in my system or other underlying causes related to my disease. I have been trying to walk approx. 1/2 mile a day. I did 1 mile yesterday broken up into 2 walks. I see my surgeon next Wednesday so I am trying to get as strong as possible. I want to present a healthy appearance to him. Then, as long as my CT-scan next Tuesday shows shrinkage of the tumors, I will be a surgery candidate once I heal from chemo & radiation & my counts come back up. Have a good day, Linda
