I have been busy and having issues with falls seems my balance wants me on the ground. Like usual that isn't the best place sometimes. On top of that I seem to have the luck of not being able to get back up without much help.
Luckily so far when I've fallen there has been many that have stopped to help. But its taking a toll on my legs and feet.

But the cardiologist isn't sure that a cath is the right next step, which I'm so glad that she is more willing to do testing to figure out if there is a reason for my problems first. So I'm scheduled to have a doppler of some kind in July,
and then a stress echogram on July 25th. Wow, even though it sounds like
such a long time away, they only do this test once a week and they also have to have the doctor present so its a wait and wait till they have room.
SO that is perfectly okay I'll wait.

Then to top things off I had my balance test, and I know there were issues,
but I don't know the extent of them. I know that I will be seeing a vestibular therapist at sometime, but not before July and I don't go back to this doctor till June 25th so I have a while to wait too. But at least I have a few answers. To a degree on this one I'm just so glad its not just in my head,
after falling 2 times last week, I was really glad I knew there was a reason
for it.

Know just to wait and hope I can get some help.
