So sorry to read your latest post about your doctor visit. Gee Whiz. You have had enough to deal with already. It's time for all this to stop. We will all work harder at sending you good vibrations, prayers and good thoughts.
I understand 100% how you feel about knowing that that "annie" is in there. It's like having a time bomb. But (although I don't know statistics) I bet there are a lot of folks who have them who never ever have an issue. I know you are saying but you have already had an issue, but it doesn't mean that you will this time, you know.
Hopefully this plan with cutting the Diovan HCT back will allow the kidneys to work better and get rid of some of that fluid.
I had kidney issues during this last MVR and blew up like a baloon...still haven't lost all of it. They switched me from Lasix to Bu something or other (I now Nancy's Joe has been on it) supposed to be easier on the kidneys. I am sure that they have tried you on that, right?
You take care. Thinking of you.

I can't say too much more than all of the fine people have before me. We will be praying for you my friend! Make sure you drink a ton of water! It can only help to decrease your fluid load. At least that is what I have been told!
Happy holiday's
Take care

I hope the revised drug dosage has the desired outcome and you can start the new year with the aneurysm problem getting sorted out. It would be playing on your mind given your past experience with an aneurysm.

Thanks all. Don't be sorry and don't have pity. Get collectively angry and pray that this insanity I live with stops. That's all I ask. I'd love one year to go by without setting foot in a Doctors, hospital, etc rooom. Just one.

Ross,
I also have not been around much lately, although I do lurk from time to time. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. I can't say anything that hasn't been said by the previous. I know what you mean about just wanting a year where you don't have to set foot in any medical establishment. I'm with you.
Try to have a Merry Christmas.

Boy howdy do I hear ya there. And, you already know that thoughts/prayers are coming your way in earnest, Ross.
Very glad I was able to meet up with you during one of my road trips. That type of meeting really brings people closer together (imho, anyway)...and adds a greater degree/dimension of caring/understanding/etc.....

I haven't been on line for a while and look what happens. Ross I know how you feel by not wanting pity, but we love you and are worried about you. You are always in my prayers. You have been through way too much. Like you I wish I could go through a year without a crisis or ending up in the hospital or in a darn doctor's office every other week, but it's not going to happen as long as I live with the CML and my other problems. Hugs are coming your way.

I felt that way too and said "no" to my cardio when he said he would see me in 6 months unless I needed him before then. I told him it would need to be a year. I sometimes get to the point I find myself looking for the escape hatch. It just takes a little time and then I'm ready to go forward again. Pain makes me ready a little earlier than some of the other things though. I really know where you are coming from and have passed through that place a time or two. I will join the collective though on your behalf.

I hope the cut back in Diovan HCT does the trick. You've had quite a year, and it's definitely time for things to take a turn for the better. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
