Nothing is wrong according to the blood work, xray, and Echo (well at least I think the Echo, Holy Spirit didn't send the record but the Engle Center didn't hear a murmur so nothing is probably wrong there). Truly, I saw the results. My blood work shows that I'm not anemic, I don't have high cholesterol (actually it's very much normal), I don't have a thyroid problem, I don't have any electrolyte imbalances, nothing. The xray said that everything is normal sized and looks good.
The only thing the EKG told the doctors, nurses, and myself is that my heart rate is slow, 53 to be exact.
Clearly, I should be a distance runner.
We (meaning my rigorous scientific mind and ability to count, yes they are separate entities don't judge me all scientists use the ubiquitous we) have carried out numerous experiments involving timing my pulse whilst I am dizzy. The results show that while I'm dizzy my rate is around 48 (that one is bad even for a distance runner.)
Anyway, the next step is that I have to go to a Cardiologist and maybe s/he (inclusive language) can tell me why my heart doesn't like me.
But first, I must A) consult the parental units and B) consult the insurance company to see if I should offer up my first born child or just a pound of flesh to help pay for this shenanigan.
So, as far as I can imagine that's the next step for me.
Well there you go, feel informed.

Well, at least you can claim that you're at least somewhat normal... :) We love you and you're wonderful and we would like very much if you would consider not dying. Or maybe you should become a distance runner...
