I decided to take a zero here because I’m so completely exhausted. I discovered that there was an Urgent Care doctor’s office next door so I walked over to get checked out for my ongoing jaw numbness and general lack of energy.  The doctor seemed very competent and did some blood tests.  My blood sugar was good and the rest of the results looked fine.  She suggested Vitamin B to increase my energy and did not think the jaw numbness had anything to do with my heart.  She basically gave me a clean bill of health which made me so happy!  I have been worrying for days now after my dentist said we may have to consider heart issues.  Every time I ran out of gas my first thought was “Is this it?  Am I going to die?”.  But now a huge weight has been lifted.  I am happy and called Barb to tell her.

I just need to dig a little deeper and get this hike finished before the snow starts! Just one week left!!!
