Not a whole lot to report, as it was just the followup with my primary care doctor.

Got a fresh prescription for Prozac, 90 days worth this time, with a single refill for another ninety day supply. I don't have to go back in to touch base and get another prescription for six months. \o/

Got the direct number for my doctor's nurse, so tomorrow I can call and pass on the cardiologist's findings. Also asked to please bring them a copy of any hardcopy test results I receive, so they can save time instead of filing a formal records transfer request.

And, since my facial redness and overall acne was nearly identical to the last time I saw her, Dr. Dudley suspects rosacea in combination with my acne. She gave me a prescription for a non-sulfur-based topical treatment, and for antibiotics. I'm to try the cream by itself for a week, and if no change occurs, let them know, and use both the cream and the antibiotics. If THAT doesn't work, we may move on to consulting a dermatologist.

Followup with the cardiologist is this afternoon at 4 o'clock. Tom's coming home early for Zodling duty. In the meantime, I am plugging away at the Sisyphean mountain of laundry, and playing with Jack-jack, who has no school today. He's been particularly well-behaved and adorable today. :D

The cardiologist says my stated symptoms are somewhat akin to angina, but none of last week's tests found anything at all wrong with my heart.

Good news, but confusing. My symptoms are sufficiently strong and frequent that this isn't just a passing thing.

Calling my primary doctor tomorrow to find out what comes next.
