The Dr. said I am healing like Wolverine. OK. So maybe he didn't put it exactly like that but he did say that I am healing nicely. I put on 3lbs since my last visit. 5lbs according to my Cardiologist but I'll get into that later. The most glorious news is that he released me to work out with weights. He cautioned against ab work and over doing it but otherwise I am free to go. Almost equally as glorious is that he referred me to the Dr. that is putting me back together since he is not comfortable doing it. It seems my level of infection, scar tissue, etc makes it more than routine. Lovely! (Please note the sarcasm.)

I also met with my cardiologist. I think he forgot about the particulars of my case. He started talking like I would be on the medication for every. When I reminded him that I have never had an issue with blood pressure until I almost died then he agreed to test my system in 5 to 6 months. Frustrating but the medicine has no rebound effects so if I "forget" to take it for a couple of days it won't hurt me. Don't worry. I'll wait until well after I am put back together before I do anything crazy.

I meet with the Dr that is putting me together tomorrow. Hopefully, I'll have some good news. Be thinking about what work out I should do. I"M CLEAR TO GO TO THE GYM. Yeah me!
