Clean bill of health

Whew! A big sigh of relief. I went to the cardiologist last week and had an exam and an echocardiogram. Everything looked great. He said I have a very healthy heart and everything looks wonderful. We were worried I had a prolapse mitro-valve like my mom and both my grandma's. But, he didn't see anything. I do have an incomplete right bundle branch block (RBBB). He told me it is nothing to be concerned with. It will not cause me any cardiac problems now or down the road. I do not have any limitations and I can lead a healthy, long life. The only thing he said to stay away from is shellfish (I can do that) and pork?! I thought it was the other white meat? Not, so he said, that's just a marketing ploy. Good to know.

And some great news for me!
