Okay, so what was my last post about???
Ah yes, my problem that I believe is a problem...
Well, the results of the sleep study are in, and the diagnosis is... Abnormal arousal (as in waking up :) ) pattern, not associated with restless leg syndrome or respiratory issue. Which means, there is nothing they can do for me. The worst part is that it cost nearly $3,000 for the sleep study, half of which was not paid my insurance. Not a good result, since I'm exactly where I was before, but without a few paychecks.
I did have a follow up with the cardiologist after the stress ekg, since my doctor thought we needed more information. His diagnosis is that I have exercise induced asthma, and now I have an inhaler ($80 more). I've only had the opportunity to use it once, at my birthday party when we were playing Dance Dance Revolution, it seemed to help, but I also took a break, so it's hard to judge. I'm going to do some "testing" with it, go to the gym and do a couple workouts with it and without it, and graph it on the Garmin and see how it looks. I hope it helps.
As for working out, this is the busiest time of the year, and to top it all off, we have had nothing but sick germs around here for a month. Before Thanksgiving, Abby had both ears infected, then we all had a little cough, then two weeks ago, we took turns with the stomach flu, everyone of us, including my parents and grandma, had it. Then once we were all done throwing up, Selena got an ear infection, then two days before Christmas, I got a sinus/eye infection. UGH!
We are all starting to feel better, hopefully enough to get excited about working out. I don't like being one of the January Gym people, the ones that seem to only come in after the holidays, but seriously, I haven't had a minute to spare to get to the gym since before our vacation in August. On another note, I'm still working on goals/schedule for 2011. Hopefully I get it figured out before 2011 is actually here. I'll work on it this week.
Okay, well, I hope all of my readers had a good holiday, and will have a safe new year.
First goal~ be better about keeping up with my blog!
