Murphy's Combo - courtesy Papa Murphy |
So an early morning appointment was made and traveling the
75 miles to our HMO is a given.
Our appointment was one of the first, and our Dr listened to
my heart and ordered an EKG. He asked me
if I had been taking the cholesterol medicine and I told him, “No, the bottle
hasn’t been opened yet.” He told me to
begin taking it please. I replied,
“Okay.”
In a few minutes the report came back; possible left
blockage. My Doctor scheduled me for a
stress test on the treadmill and as there were no appointments available on
that day he asked us to come back tomorrow in the late afternoon.
Usually my husband is worn out by afternoon, so we decided
to bring an overnight bag with us - - just in case we needed to get a hotel and
spend the night.
Arriving at our destination there was only short
wait. Very soon they
brought me in for the test and hooked me up to gauges that would give
information to the computer. By the end
of the test, I was huffing and puffing, but no real problems like a week ago.
When the test was over the nurse looked at the print outs,
and said, “I don’t see any blockage in your heart, but this report will be sent
to the Cardiologist who will decipher it with his expert knowledge.
By 4:00 pm we were ready to leave, so my Robert realized
that we could make it home before dark.
We were gaining distance and soon would arrive at our city,
when Robert said, “I have been hankering for one of Papa Murphy’s® combination
Pizza’s, so what do you think?”
I figured to myself, “He needs this,” so I replied, “Why
not? Pizza will be good for our
hearts.” J
Actually Pizza was probably not the best choice for dinner -
- but it sure was good!

Hahaha.... Good for the soul! Praise God, but will continue prayer. Hugs Vicki K
Sounds like nothing serious with your heart, Hazel. That's good news... and who knows, possibly an answer to prayer? I know you've had plenty sent up on your behalf.
Pizza every once in a while isn't so bad I don't think.
Continuing to pray for you.
So thankful for your good report. I like Floyd's suggestion of answered prayer.
We had Papa Murphy's tonight -- got in on the $4.00 deal.
