Can't sleep

I've tried, but I'm unable to sleep. I'm in constant pain and meds do not help. I don't know yet what is causing it, will find out more on Wednesday. At that time my neurologist will be able to tell me if I will need surgery for an aneurysm, or if I will need treatment for problems with my neck.

Took my husband in for a general physical and because he's over 40, they decided to do an EKG. It was not normal. They detected an arrhythmia that may indicate blockage. They did a coronary calcium scan to see if there is blockage. He is scheduled to undergo a stress test on Friday and just maybe he'll be okay. We will get the results on the 29th of this month.

Just one more thing to stress about when I'm not supposed to be stressing. Hopefully my meds work and my blood pressure won't go up again.

I am so tired. I didn't sleep last night. Managed to take a nap during the day, but only for a couple of hours.

I'm hoping tomorrow (today) is better. I'm sorry this posting seems so negative, I'm usually very upbeat. I'm just tired of hurting.

If I ramble on, its because I'm bored. I can't concentrate on anything. There's nothing on the "boob tube" that interests me, if I try to knit or crochet I can't stay focused and my vision blurs or occasionally goes double. I've started and ripped out the same yarn so many times, by the time I finally make anything, it's going to look old.

I would like to get out of the house, but even a short trip to buy groceries, or see the doctors just wears me out.

Maybe letting all this out in the open will help, I know it won't heal me, but it may help to calm me down.
