    Oh no! I hope you feel better soon- post it, I'm sure we can help you feel better! Sometimes doctors can be so insensitive and cold, but then again I don't know what happened so... Anyways. But have you stocked to the magnesium? Is anything at all helping you?

    Hi Susie - Thanks for your sweet words! Hope you're having a wonderful Christmas!

    If you were here in Michigan right now, I'd take you running with me!! :p And I wouldn't take 'no' for an answer.

    I've heard about kava kava but never tried it. Hope you start feeling better soon. I'm having flutters this morning that I'm trying to not get nervous over. I think mine is mostly food and blood sugar related this AM.

    Hey Susie, sorry your not feeling better today. When my chest hurts from muscle aches I usually take 250-500mg of magnesium and then get in a hot tub with Epsom salts and lavender and it really helps, a hot shower helps too but not as much as the bath. Have you tried yoga? The first couple times were hard for me because I was scared and it was hard for me to be still but after I got through those I felt so much better. And yoga helps me calm down because you have to concentrate on the position and your heart takes the back seat. I'm luckily feeling better today after sleeping well last night. Hugs to you too! I hope your chest pain subsides, I bet you've pulled those muscles from breathing funny or deep breathing.

    I'm sorry your not doing well today. I've been weepy today and yesterday too but I'm trying to just feel better and relax. It's hard but I'm putting my body through the motions and hoping the emotions follow! Are your palpitations on going or is it that you had some ongoing then they calmed down but your still scared they are coming back? Mine have calmed down but I'm having chest like pains from too much deep breathing and I'm feeling like I'm causing them by concentrating on my breathing. So I'm trying to just let it happen naturally. I feel like my heart is in my throat but not necessarily palpitating. Crazy!

A lovely good day to you all.

Man, it is so lovely out, the sun is shining, and against the white snow on the ground, it looks just like a postcard. No wind either, perfect.

I have been busy all morning, I am trying to get forms and paperwork in order so I can get a passport and some other things, man, the red tape you have to go through, they sure could save a lot of trees if it was not for all that paperwork, LOL, form after form, kind of stressful to say the least. I...

Well I just took my KOH monitor off, I did not have any major "skips" so, those two weeks were rather uneventful. As I said, I took it off today, the allotted time is over, now, I feel very lost without it and am nervous that I will have a major "skip" episode and I do not have the monitor to record it. I am even sort of feeling something like little "Skips" right now, but, I know that it is not so, my pulse is fine. This just goes to show me that most of my heart skips...

Well, here is another 7 day journal, this one is for the new monitor, as I said in my last post in my last journal, I just did not feel that the monitor I wore for those 7 days was any good, it was banged up, had tape on it, etc. This one is a lot better, so, here we go again.

It was put on me at 11:30 before I came home, this time, I will not be out of town, but home, so, we shall see if this makes a difference, I tend to be more nervous at home, but, so far, all is well and I feel...

Well, folks, I finally have my 7 day monitir. I feel like a time bomb. I was with the tech over 30 minutes. LOL, before she called me back, I had a few "skips" in the waiting room, I thought to myself, "what a way to start". They stopped by the time she called me back however.

It holds 14 events, but, I can call them in after any number, I change patches daily, it is very sensitive, she said if I hear a ring, do not worry, it is just picking up either an artifact...

Wow, I am happy, I am going to post what I just sent my doctor. I know for some, what I just did may not seem like a big deal, but for me, it was a major feat, I will write more after the quote of what I wrote:

Hello~Here is an email you will like. I am happy to write it too.

This may not seem like a big deal to most, but for me, it was a momentous feat. I was able to walk over to Safeway and back without anyone being with me, man, I was scared to, but, I did
