Thank you, Lee 
I forgot to say in my last post that I would be thinking about you too (which I was /am).
I felt too beaten down and was crying too much to come back before. Now I've given myself a headache, so will be away a bit more...I will try to come back this evening.
I hope that your anxiety is a bit better today than it has been...sending you a big but gentle hug...

@NatureLoverso nice to see you again. Always is good to . I spoke to my doctor today and I'm getting a referral to a cardiologist. She just wants to double check things. M y heart rate isn't too downs it's up and down, but I'm managing.
Are you doing any better? How is that headache? I worry about you .
You will still be here in the morning like I have previously mentioned right ?

Nice to see you, too... Yes, I will be here tomorrow morning to talk about what you'd like to talk about, Lee. 🙂
The headache has eased a bit, thanks.

Glad you're managing...I think it sounds good, the referral to the cardiologist. And how about the referral to the allergist - was it an allergist, for your allergic reaction?
