Heart monitor

I get to wear a heart monitor all day today with 5 of these wires attached to my chest.  Hopefully the last precautionary test on the list to prove to everyone make sure I'm healthy.  It was preceded by 3 EKGs, 1 EEG, 1 CT scan, 2 complete blood work-ups, a stress test with heart ultrasound, 2 visits to my family doctor, 2 blood pressure tests, 1 visit to the cardiologist (with another scheduled in a month--just in case), 1 visit to the ER and a partridge in a pear tree.  I was told not to do any more endurance races, which bums me out a tiny bit.  And the nurse told me not to play Ultimate Frisbee tonight with my heart monitor on.  No fun!  And everyone seems to have their own theories as to what might be going on.  The one thing I wasn't told by any doctor, nurse, or technician but that I think will cure my fainting spells is that I just need to learn to say no and not have so much going on.  So please, stop worrying.  I am healthy.
