Got some good news today.  Fo almost a month I have been concerned about my heart.

I got some weird feelings in my chest. My doctor found I had atrial fibrillation  I felt exhausted.  He changed my meds and added one. He scheduled a visit to a cardiologist which was today.Istarted feeling better. On a follow up visit he said I was back to normal.

 At the cardiologist they did a few checks, the doctor came in and he asked a few questions,we chatted for a few minutes then said the tests showed my heart is fine and then he said, "You don't need a heart doctor.".

   So on the way home I stopped at my Ford dealer to see about a Fiesta ST.

They have a "Black" on the way and will call me when it comes in.   Price looks good.

Life is good.

Way to go!

I've discovered that even when things aren't so well, life is most certainly still good.

Congrats on the healthiness!  Although, I have to admit, from the thread title I was expecting a Dacia and not a Fiesta. .....

 

Good News!

Working hearts are the best hearts. I prescribe a new car to fix what ails you!

I guess the Fiesta sticker was good for your ticker.   A toast to your good health, and good luck on your future ride.

This is good news.

One of my great GRM regrets is finding out, after the fact, that I was at two events that you were also at, and not seeking you out and introducing myself.

Here's looking forward to the next one!

Hearts good? Better buy an ST. I definitely approve of your thought process (note for future self - babe what else was I supposed to do I thought I was dying so obviously I bought a fun car)

You'll love the ST.  I'm about 8 months into ownership and it's a fun car.

Oh, and congrats on the health news.

If I recall correctly, there was an ice race in New York and a CART track day at Pocono (Circuits Maximus). Did you drive an Escort GT at some point?

Working on the same heart issues myself right now.  If (hopefully, when) I get a clean bill of health, I'll be sure to tell Mrs. Kazoo that a Fiesta ST is the official maintenance dose for heart health.

Yup, that the car I was trying to think of.

Now I wait.   The ST isn't due to the dealer until July 14.

Stephanie, the sales person , is supposed to call me.

I most likely will be haunting the dealership around then.

 Feeling back to normal.

The health news is good.   The ST news is good.   What is not good news is the insane price of the   Eliquis. Over $300 to the pharmacy, insurance pays about $ 90.

Kind of puts a cloud on things.    

You'll need to log in to post.
