    Haven’t got physical yet. Concentra near me is the worst. Looking for a decent place, Only have 2 chances, at picking a MRO. Any more is considered Dr. Shopping. If more info is needed, have to re test, and pay twice. The anxiety alone is going to bump my BP up.

    no coffee in the morning, lots of water....

    the concentra near me the main doctor is like 80 and barely looks at you......I was
    very relieved to see her come walking in.

    Blame your high bp on fear of covid and doctors offices. Even tho concentra won’t treat covid it will get the conversation started that your nervous........

    Med card expired, Had stress test been ok, I’d been good. But Noooooooooo!!! Had to do more testing. Had to wait 6 weeks for heart cath. I’m glad I’m OK, no new blockages. I guess I should have gotten it done sooner. But knowing that I’m only getting a one year, I didn’t want to go too early for the physical. I honestly didn’t know a stress test is required every 2 yrs. First all they wanted was a EF reading above 40. Mine is 60 which is normal. The minor damage from heart attack has repaired itself. Then the MRO tells me I need a stress test, I said no problem I’m getting one in 2 days, I’ll be back. That’s when the plot thickened. It’s the uncertainty that’s aggravating. Not ready to quit Trucking yet.
