aging bodies

Off I went to the opthamologist. Good news! My prescription has not changed in the past two years, and my cataracts are not much worse. Bad news: Need to see a retinal specialist to explain why my eyes are seeing a straight line of type as wavy. Off to another doc. So those are my b/w half moons above, with dips in the middle. The dips are VMT—vitreomacular tension. They come with aging. They either get better or they get worse. Check back in a while.

Then it was off to the cardiologist to investigate a heart murmur. After an EKG and an echocardiogram, the word was cholesterol buildup in a couple valves. It comes with aging. It either gets worse or it doesn't. Check back in a while.
