Hospital Update

I’ve been admitted for about 24 hours now, and so far my tests have all come back negative. Specifically:

  • Blood Enzymes
  • EKG
  • Head CT
  • various Blood Pressure Tests
  • Carotid Artery Ultrasound

I’m still waiting for a cardiac echo, but they’ve been swamped with emergency cases, so I’m going to have to stay another day. Since I’m supposed to be back on Friday at 7:15 AM for an upper endoscopy, I’m trying to get them to schedule it for while I’m still admitted. I think if the echo is normal, they would normally send me home tomorrow afternoon, but I’d only get to go home for about 40 hours before being back for another procedure — with the requisite shuttling back and forth between College Park and Baltimore.
