Cardiologist Appointment

I finally had my appointment last Friday with my cardiologist.  The bottom line, no running until I have a nuclear stress test next week.  I was very depressed for a couple of days.  I think what got to me the most is the idea that I'm so limited in what I can do with running.  That sounds pitiful, and it is with every thing else I have to be so thankful for.  Flash backs of all the ways that I haven't taken care of myself over the years came flooding back.

I've pulled out my copy of Dean Ornish's book on reversing cardio-vascular disease and want to recommit to the diet.  I pretty much do everything else he suggests with stress management and exercise.  Writing about this I hope will keep me on track.
