Hello everyone I thought I would update you all on my health since it has been a few months since I had my heart attack. I have been seeing the doctor every other week and progress has been slow but very good. On July the 4th I went for a stress test and the specialist was unsure as to why I was even there! I am not sure whether to take that as a good thing or not but hey! LOL. I went to see the doctor again on the 13th but he hadn't gotten the results back yet. I have now been given the go ahead to walk 2 miles a day instead of just the 1 which is good. Actually he said I MUST walk 2 miles a day! LOL. Of course if I am busy working and being active then it is not necessary. I told him I had volunteered for working the concession stand at a play for the weekend and he was thrilled (I thought he would give me heck cause I am not supposed to be working!) I also told him I had volunteered to help get the site ready. So needless to say I am feeling much much better now but still listening to the doc. I have friends that make sure of that! :) Thank you in advance for your comments.

Yes it is and I love walking, always have. I was walking 6+ miles before the heart attack so this is very difficult for me to not just keep going! LOL I know I can't push it though. I am still very nervous and envision myself doing something and feeling that dreaded pain again but I know it is just me worrying. :)

Yes I am wary of overdoing it. It is frustrating when the only exercise you can do is that 1 or 2 mile walk. or the equivalent to that. LOL. My friends a very impressed though I have been very good and listening to the doc. which is probably a first for me! :P
