It was weird getting ready alone, I got so used to his alarm and my alarm going off that it's weird just having one. I ended up not wanting to eat breakfast at home and grabbing something on the way to work; along with coffee I didn't need.


Work was alright, I'm getting the hang of referrals but managing a practice is a whole different ballgame. My boss emailed me the credentials of all the medical staff, I felt like a stalker reading them. I know it's my job, but it just felt so weird. I guess this just proves I've got a little longer to go before I understand all it takes to manage a practice.


The PA and I did lunch together, he's really good about talking my anxiety down a few notches. I have exactly a week before I see Cardiologist and I am massively terrified my brain keeps coming up with zebra diagnosis's. I decided to let him come along, I just don't want to be alone. I know realistically all he is going to do is probably order a laundry list of tests, but still my brain keeps coming up with anxiety to the situation.


Currently waiting for my first of four therapy sessions this week; I'll let you all know how this goes.


Hugs to everyone


Things are going to feel weird for a while. Make new routines for yourself. Do things when and how YOU want.

Grabbing breakfast out sounds wonderful !

I’m so glad your job is still going well, years ago I did your job, it was relatively low stress and I enjoyed it.

I can tell you not to stress about your cardiologist appt all day long but ..... you are worried like anyone would be. I’ve done the whole zebra deal , makes matters worse when you work IN the medical field. Your appt will be here soon and then you can take a deep breath.

Hang in there hun ! Keep posting getting it outta our heads really does help.
