Since Monday, the heart problems are much reduced. Not absent, mind you...I feel the same discomfort now, even though my heartbeat is regular. I'm guessing that some of it has to do with it being late in the day and me being tired, but I don't know for certain.

I called my doctor Monday, and he said that it was less serious than my mother had implied (mom's a nurse, for those of you who don't know) but still required investigation. I have an appointment with a cardiologist for next week Thursday for a Holter monitor (24 hour EKG monitoring for 1 day) and possibly an echocardiogram. In the meantime, I'm still losing weight, so that's a good thing.

I should talk about other stuff, but there's not much else to mention. Everything else that I feel like mentioning here is status quo.
