My new medicine. What a happy color it is!

So I went to my new cardiologist for an appointment on Friday. He is an excellent doctor with a wonderful reputation who also happens to have a great bedside manner. So the plan of action at this time is to get my blood pressure under control (trying with the new medicine) once that happens then a stress test, then a visit to a pulmonologist, and finally then a sleep study to see if I have sleep apnea like most dwarves (especially achons) have. It feels scary, but I know in the end it will be an enormous blessing in my life. I have lived in fear for so long that facing that fear head on is agonizing, yet cathartic.
