Some fear heart surgery, I fear hospitals and Doctors!

[Christina L]

Ross!!!!

Ross!!!!

As much as I hate hospitals, I remember when I was low on blood during the time of my surgery and was transfused two units - and started to feel better. There are times still when I wish in a way I could just go to the hospital for some rest and for some more blood!!

You will feel oh so much better and ya know, Ross, THIS is most likely the reason for your extreme tiredness over the last few weeks. Doesn't that make you feel better (in a way) to know that it is not at all your heart and something that is very fixable. Don't fool around with low blood pressure - it puts a terrible strain on your heart.

If I was your wife, I would get out a pitchfork and prod you all the way through the hospital doors!!!

Ross - be a good boy - like Karlynn said you aren't going to get any spanking from us for being bad, but you may if you are good (by going to the hospital ASAP!).

That spanking may just get him to the hospital, Christina. In fact, I'll bet he's on his way right now. LINDA

Dear Ross, I pray you have listened to Al, and are on your way! If you're not sleeping, you may as well go! At least you know you have worked your way into all our hearts. Do take care. Brian

Take care of business......!

Take care of business......!

Ross,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Please go and take care. I do understand. To a certain degree that is.

Wishing you the best.

Boy, do I know exactly how you feel! I waited more than 12 hours when I had my ovarian cyst burst before calling in to be seen by my doc. I refused to go to the ER because I felt like I never got any results. Guess what... My doc sent me to the ER to figure out what was going on! I at least got back right away, but I could have been feeling better a lot sooner if I'd gone in the night before. And who knows, maybe they could have stopped the bleeding without the surgery if I had???

I won't lecture you, because I DO understand. But please know that we all care SO much about you and want you to take care of yourself. You're important to us. You're a member of our families and we love you too much to sit back and watch you in pain.

Love and hugs,

Ross....
I do hope you have listened to those who were so wisely urging you to go to the ER....
We know you fear Hospitals but you know you gotta just do it!

I will be busy praying for you till we hear good news

Ross-

Wishing you all the best. Joe's been battling this very thing for a LONG time. His INR level had to be reduced due to it, since he was losing a lot of blood and was requiring transfusions.

He still has problems which seem to flare up and go away. May be related to some sort of autoimmune problem, we'll know soon.

Ross, I hope all is well. I'm concerned for you also. I understand the hospital fear and that your history makes that worse for you. By now you should be at or on the way to the hospital. Prayers and best wishes going out for you.

I am checking in!!

I am checking in!!

I thought of you first thing this morning, Ross. Wondering how you are. I am hoping you are lying in a hospital bed (eating that wonderful hospital food - hee) feeling 100% better!! Doctors and nurses are wonderful people. I know you had a bad experience years ago, but know that those people are there to make you well.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I just talked to Ross.
He's working on being seen by a doctor this morning, and he will post when he knows something.

 

[Christina L]

Thanks so much Mary!

Thanks so much Mary!

I guess if Ross is not in the hospital, I am just glad that he is still okay enough to be home and planning a doctor visit.

Hope all goes well at the visit Ross and whatever is going on with you, it will be minor and they will fix you up pronto (without having to be admitted).

I was wonderring if this should be moved to somewhere that everyone will read, to get as many prayers as possible. I know not everyone reads the anticoag forum,
