Whew!

I had another fainting spell on Saturday, and today, I feel like I finally got some answers. It turns out I have a benign cardiac abnormality. My heart and adrenaline are working overtime, and that is probably what is causing me to faint. They gave me some medications and instructed me to use hatha yoga and exercise to help lower my heart rate. I'm on medical leave for 2 weeks, and from there, I think I need to re-evaluate the stress levels I am working in. I love oncology. I love our patients and I love nursing, but I realize my body is trying to tell me to slow down. I've got 2 weeks, and I think that I will be able to figure out some stuff.
