Well that’s a plot twist

About two years ago I developed a hiatal hernia that has wreaked absolute hell on my body and my mind. It has been messing with my vagus nerve giving me all kinds of digestional problems. The GI I saw did not take me seriously, told me to change my diet and lose weight. Well gee, thanks for that astute observation, asshole. I guess spending several years giving myself the actual hell of losing weight somehow medically supercedes the feeling of an impending heart attack every single day. To be very clear, I saw a cardiologist who checked me out and said my heart is in very good condition, though I should continue to exercise to strengthen it. This doesn’t change the fact that I have experienced an extensive trauma from the entire ordeal.
