Memoirs of Akbar Hashemi – March 4, 1999

Early in the morning, we went to the heart hospital for a check-up. Chastity also came. Test with exercise for the heart with two injections of thallium - while exercising and while resting - and two scans and an echo and an ECG by Dr. Nohi, Dr. Maleki, and Dr. Milanian, and finally they said that there are minor heart defects that are common in many people, but care is also necessary. Ultrasound of the bladder, kidneys, spleen and liver was performed by Dr. Sim Forosh and Dr. Azizi, who expressed their consent; Although the bladder is slightly enlarged, it is growing in a good direction and has not caused the urethra to narrow.

The examination of digestion and emptying was done by Dr. [Reza] Malekzadeh and Dr. Ahmad Kalantari, which is not without problems, but it is tolerable and requires care. For the problem of reflux and stomach acid and sometimes constipation, they injected cortone in the area of ​​Cloyed which was left from the surgery after the assassination attempt in 1358.

We had breakfast with a group of doctors, and at the same time, they explained about the situation of the hospital, the insurance situation, and the insurance debt to the hospital, which has become problematic, as well as the government's lack of attention to economic and technical issues, unlike the previous government. Dr. [Mohammed] Farhadi and Dr. [Ahmed] Daneshian also examined my ear, which sometimes whistles and rings, especially after sleep, and they did not see anything wrong.

At noon, I went to Koshk's office. I saw newspapers and reports and used the swimming pool, sauna and jacuzzi. I returned home in the evening. I read a bit and set up the library a bit. At night, Efat went to the wedding ceremony of Ahmed's brother's daughter, and I was at home, working on correcting the Qur'an keys.

In the media, the discussion of council elections is still hot. It has become clear that most of the successful candidates are independent and the parties and groups have had little success and there is a lot of protest against the election results. Because there were many candidates in the cities and the number of votes is very low. The issue of Mr. [Mohsen] Kadivar's arrest is also of interest; They rush to the special clerical court.
