Sodium is HARD to think about. A new thing I have to learn. I've not used the salt shaker since the day I went to the doctor. It's going to be really hard during PMS because the only thing that helps is hot salty french fries.
I ordered an Albuquerque Turkey from Schlotsky's today--but I did remember to tell them to leave off the bacon. I've been counting calories all this time, and now I have to think about calories AND sodium. oy.
I had my yearly exam at the gyno today. I told her about the BP and the heart palps, and she said I should go back to my regular doc and get it checked, for sure. She wasn't panicky--she said it could just be PVCs, but it should be checked. She said they would probably do a 24 hr. Holter monitor or an event monitor. Unfortunately, I had to take my son in to our doc for his knee today, too. (He got hammered by the dogs running in the yard and he has his father's bad knees.) So that has taken the focus off of me for the moment. Xrays and a trip to the ortho is next.
I am sure that dh will have something he needs to go to the doctor for, soon, since we're going. It always works out that way!
