March is Here

Wow its March already. Feb was a wintery month. We did have some good weather in the middle of the month.It got warm enough to melt the snow, but then we got another storm and got 8 inches more. Business was good at Toyota. It got really busy towards the end of the month. We will see how it ends up.
expenses should be high this month because of a $400.00 gas card promotion we ran for the month. Golf trip in a month.

Golf meeting

Golf meeting at the man cave tonight. About 6more weeks till we leave. I need to get in shape before we go

Update

It was a nice day today but it was cold. Probably didn't get much above 30 degrees. Did a little yard work Also did the grocery shopping. I feel pretty good today. Did 30 minutes of cardio on the bike this morning. We need a good week at work next week. I just saw winter storm warnings on the TV. I hope it holds off. We lost most of the snow last week.

Not much Happening. I feel OK had some dizzy spells yesterday, but I think it was because I missed taking a pill. Did some hard cardio.Just trying to make Feb good at Toyota. Allot of our snow melted yesterday got up into the upper 50's. Supposed to be there again today then cool down.

Feeling Better

Got the OK from both doctors to go back to the gym. I'm going to wait till after the break to go back. Thats March.

Update

Got the results of my bloodwork today. My hemoglobin count is up to 12.3. I guess normal is around 13 to 13.5 so I am close. According to the doctor its within acceptable range. He said I could start working out again, but I am going to call Dr. Dratlers and see what his opinion is.

A Reason to Worry?

Yesterday was kind of a wierd day. I really didnt feel as well as I have been the last week or so. Slight stomach pain and some dizziness as well. I am worried I may be bleeding again. I did go and do bloodwork yesterday so I will wait to get the results of that. Maybe I'm pushing myself to hard. (yah right)

Update

I'm starting to feel stronger every day. The last 2 days I worked 10 hours and 9 hours. I seem to be having trouble sleeping, but I dont feel tired during the day. Go in for bloodwork next week. Hopefully my bloodcount is almost back to normal. My goal is to be back working out by March 1st.

Progress??

I think I'm starting to feel a little better. I seem to have more stamina. Yesterday I lasted the whole day at work. I am not as dizzy either. I have to be careful not to do to much just because I feel better.

Me

My Friday Dr. appt. went well. My blood count is up to 11.6 which is one point higher than when I left the hospital. I am starting to feel better longer into the day now. Usually I'll feel pretty good for a couple of hours and then start feeling weak and dizzy. Time will tell. I just have to be patient.

Dr. Appt

Went to Dratler today and he found some inflamation and ulcerations on my lower esophagus and also some small ulcerations in my stomach. He said they can be treated with medicine and I have a follow up appt in 2 months. He removed a pollup from my colon as well. He took a biopsy of everything and I will get those results in a week. I feel pretty good about things. Time will tell if this is the cause of all my problems, Shortness of breath,Chest pains, no energy, dizziness. I was treated for animeia. I also have a family doctors appt and thats when I,ll find out about my hemoglobin count. When I left the hospital it was at 9.9. I'm told it should be around 13. I will be happy if I see an increase. Its supposed to take a couple of months to recover completely.

Fun Fun Fun

Weds the 12th I get a colonosopy (pardon my spelling) and and upper Gi scope to see where I'm bleeding. Most of the time they said they can fix the problem right there. I hope so. I'm ready to start feeling better. I am not going to be able to go to the gym for at least 2 months.

Another Scare

Saturday night I woke up and with severe stomach pain. I got up to go to the bathroom to throw up and passed out before I got there. Helen heard me fall and called 911. I had to go to the hospital in an ambulace. It turns out I had "gi bleeding" which was caused by my heart medicine. My blood pressure was down to 80/58. I had to get a transfusion and plasma. Thay kept me there till Tues morning. I am better now but its going to take a couple of months to recover.I hope this is the last scare I have for awhile.

Happy New Year!!

Hard to believe its 2011 already. Paid off the mortgage today!! We probably should have done it long ago but there was always something we needed or wanted money for.
