Hakuna Matata

 I had an appointment yesterday with my cardiologist after I postponed the appointment twice.  I had a question.  I asked if there would ever be any benefit to taking an extra amlodipine in any situation of wanting to eliminate the possibility of having an episode.  His reply, “No, amlodipine is very powerful.  Your blood pressure is already low.  My advice, take your medication, take your aspirin. stay active, don’t gain weight, enjoy your life and don’t worry!”  That sounded like, “No Worries.  Hakuna Matata!”  That actually sounded very reassuring but I also don’t relish the thought of having to be forced to make a spectacle of myself at any undesirable time and place.  I already played that one on 9/11 at a vet appointment with my cat. That was 2024.  Fortunately the two episodes I have had at home since then have been not as severe.  They would still be spectacle worthy though if they occurred in any non-private place. 😲  I don’t know why I am reflecting on this.  It must be some kind of Hakuna Matata moment. 🤨

 I was never present when my paternal grandmother had any angina episodes, so I have no idea what her angina episodes were like for her.
