got stung by a wasp yesterday (for the 3rd fucking time this summer)
I was barefoot walking through my backyard and the fucker musta been in the grass and I stepped on it
Nailed me right in the bottom of my left foot. Hurt like fucking hell for about 30 straight minutes
Now today its been all swollen up and poofy. I can walk on it, its not painful, just swollen all the way up to the ankle
I guess if it doesnt go down by tomorrow evening Ill go to a doc and see if theres anything they can do

Had my first appointment with my new primary care physician. Need to get fasting bloodwork done and follow-up visit in a few weeks. Also got a flu vaccination shot since I might as well. Physician seems nice.

For now.

Passing one stress test doesn’t mean you should stop paying attention to it.
Yup. Still have to get rid of the bit of a beer gut I've got going (which causes liver fat, which causes cholesterol) and watch my dietary cholesterol. I've got thin blood vessels so I'm more prone to cholesterol, so I gotta keep it down as much as possible.

The stress test took 5 minutes to do, but the cardiologist commented "hey since you're on the treadmill anyway, want to go longer?"... did 5 more minutes with a 170bpm heart rate, still clear.

they put you at that weird speed where its just super awkward to run, but slightly too fast to speedwalk?
