I heart my cardiologists.

I saw my EP (Electro Physiology Cardiologist) today. Apparently my diastolic suddenly dropping into the 40s is not what freaks him out, it's my systolic being in the 70s and 80s, he says those are the numbers that send me reeling to my bed. Got my meds cut yet again, this time amlodipine, and go back in six weeks for more tweaking. It will be a double. I get to see my cardiologist first, then him an hour later. I adore them both and fondly think of them as Thing One and Thing Two. I told Thing Two, the EP, that I am in the process of getting another dx for Drop Attacks but because of Vestibular PT I don't drop. Which is good, I'm not smash-facing on the floor. Diagnosis of the day: "Trudi, your ANS is wonky." I agree, win.
