The Bumps Along the Way

One thing that I have come to realize about heart disease is that it just doesn't go away. For the rest of my life I will have to manage this disease, and for the rest of my life there will be bumps along the way. Last week I encountered a bump. My pulse rate has gone up for some reason. I am scheduled for a treadmill next Monday to find out what is going on. To be honest I am a bit mad right now, but not depressed. I am mad because I just don't like the fact that I have heart disease, and this bump probably won't be the last one. I have learned not to be depressed though because I have learned to live with heart disease. Hey, we all have to live with something.
