发帖数: 2634 | 1 Early this morning. He ordered ECG right away after
I expressed my slow-heart-rate concern. He said it would
be better to take ECG to make sure. He did not think I
would have anything wrong - but to ease my worry and
remove any concern he might have just in case. He listened
to my heart beat, extremely strong was his comment. He also
said that my deep breathes are very long, strong, and steady,
very healthy.
As usual, he ordered blood test. I actually had ECG and
blood drawn (two tubes!) right after seeing my doctor.
My blood was hard to stop after drawing. Guess my heart
beat was really strong.
He OKed me to train for marathon from now on, unless I
heard differently from him after my ECG reading.
Also had bone density screening yesterday. The other doctor
said that my bone was A+, the best he had seen recently.
When I came out from the hospital, it was raining, so I
started to run home (I walk to see my doctor as morning
exercise). I was so encouraged by what the doctor said. So
I run faster then before. There was a half mile up hill,
and the last 1/4 mile was steep. I used to slow down to
5mph or even walk up. But I did not fee a thing today, and
run up @6.5-7mph easily.
Bought 4 McDonald's burgers on the way back(I had not had
a single burger in the past 3 months), and finished 2 for
breakfast. One left for lunch and the other for LD.
Will join a group run tomorrow in the evening. The group run
at average 6mph for ~1 hour, and it was hard for me to keep
half year ago, so I quit. But I know it is my LHR training
speed now, so I am really looking forward to it. | A***a

The bone density test, is it one of the routine test? I had never done one
before and I'm a woman! | t*******f
发帖数: 2634 | 3 It is not a routine, usually. I only had the ultra-sound screening.
If found problem, then go through MRI full body scan.
Just talk to you doctor. Since they earn money, so state your
concern, they usually will be happy to let you go for screening
at least:)

发帖数: 2634 | 5 It is better to get it done. I also had a period of
3-4 years not seeing my old doctor. Then when I wanted
some immunization shot, he refused, and asked me to
have a physical exam before he would proceed - as you
know, immunization sometimes even does not need prescription.
Basically he was saying that because he had not seen me
for a long time, our relationship needed to be re-established.
So I changed my doctor, and started with my current doctor.
Think about the insurance you paid, let it work:)

story, but did not prepared to meet one myself:)
