Aniogram Procedure
Being in a hospital has always made me feel uneasy. The sterile environment, the unfamiliarity of medical procedures, and the anticipation of what might happen tend to trigger feelings of nervousness and anxiety within me. Even a simple blood test can send my heart racing and make me feel jumpy.
So, when my cardiologist mentioned that I needed to undergo an angiogram procedure, I was taken aback. Honestly, I had no clue what the procedure meant. As the doctor talked about it, I felt nervous. In my head, I thought about putting it off, but I ended up saying yes, even though I didn't understand what was coming.
After leaving the cardiologist and scheduling the Aniogram procedure I felt strangely calm. My heart wasn't racing, and I didn't feel super scared. I had a few doubts here and there. Moments when I wondered about the outcome, about what the procedure would entail, and what it might reveal about my health. But that feeling was always replaced with calmness and peace.
As each day passes, I find that my heart remains at peace. It's a bit strange—I expected to feel more anxious, and the fact that I'm not worried at all makes me wonder if something's wrong. But instead of dwelling on those thoughts, I turn to prayer, asking God to bless me with a safe and swift procedure.
As the day of the procedure drew nearer, I faced it with a sense of peace and acceptance, knowing that I wasn't navigating this journey alone. With each moment, I clung to the belief that God was by my side, guiding me through the uncertainty and offering His unwavering support.
On the day of the procedure, my husband and I arrived at the hospital. Surprisingly, I was still very calm, free from any worry. Not an ounce of heart palpitation or nervousness. Throughout the procedure, I felt as though God was right there with me, providing comfort and reassurance. I was confident that everything would be alright because I knew God was watching over me, ensuring my well-being every step of the way.
I'm sharing this because I want people to know how amazing our God is. He's our comforter and refuge, a source of peace in times of uncertainty. During the procedure, I wasn’t expecting to feel such profound calmness and peace, but God ensured that I was okay. His presence was a constant reassurance, guiding me through the procedure with a sense of tranquility that I had never experienced before.
