So I went to my appointment yesterday and and my PCP had a EKG done, sent me to a lab for blood work, and I have to get a chest xray done. I will go on Friday for blood work and then Saturday for a chest xray. Whooo hoooo moving right along. I have 2 more days til I have to go on my 1000 per day diet.
