Update

My husband's visit with the Cardiologist went very well. They officially said he is healthy and fine. He has a syndrome called Neuro Cardiological Syncope which basically means his nervous system can shut down at any moment and cause him to faint. He needs to make sure he always stays well hydrated and when he feels faint to immediately lie down. The DR said he is the rare person that they tell to eat a lot of salt. Salt helps you retain water, so it is great if you have a tendancy to faint.
The DR. appointment in itself was fun. The DR was real nice and we basically did a sonogram of my husbands heart which is called an Echocardiogram. It is weird that last week we saw a baby when we did this, and this week it was a heart! The nurse said his pictures were so great that he could be a heart model. Of course that went straight to my husbands head, ha ha. If someone tells you that you can be a model of something, it can't help but make you feel good.
So we were proud to get that report. However in the waiting room I turn to my husband and say, "What if they say, Go to the hospital we have to go into surgery on your heart." He laughed and said, "yeah, or what if they say I have 2 months to live?" When he said that I got mad at him and real sad and told him not to joke about that. He was like, Look at what you just said to me!?!
We can be so funny sometimes!
