Thanks for the update........

Thanks for the update........

You must have read my mind. I have been thinking of you guys a lot lately. Moving can be such a drain. Please let your mom know that she is still in our prayers, and I hope she gets some answers or some "fixes" for the problems that she has been having. Sending hugs and thanks again.

I am still around

I am still around

Janet,
Hey, its been a long time since I was on. I spent 8 days in Cleveland hospital. CHF and Cardiomyopathy They took 10 pounds of fluid off. My heart was enlarged, liver enlarged and lungs were filling up. I was out of it for 4 days didn't think I would make it. They wanted to do heart cath but the CT scan with the dye injected looked fair. I had a stress test about a month ago and only last 2 mins. had to take me off due to the angina. My heart is struggling and doing the best it can. Dr. said it is very weak. I told them to give me a new heart, But that is easier said than done. I will be trying to start cardiac rehab next week Don't know if down the road if I will need a new heart but time will tell. I cried for about about a week because I was so tired and I thought this was the end. But the Drs. didn't waste any time getting the fluid off. I still have a long way to go. They have cut my lasix back to 40mgs x2 day and put me on Diuril 500mg x2 day and that seems to be helping. I have missed every one. I'll try to post more. Take care and Best wishes to everyone

Mary!!!!!

Mary!!!!!

I don't think anyone saw your update squeezed in here. I'm not sure why I checked back into this thread, but something just told me to. Maybe, I was just really hoping for an update from you.............

Regardless, I am so glad that I did. Now I know that my fears have been justified. I was so hoping that no news was good news............sigh! You have really been through the wringer since you last posted. What a frightening time you have had. No wonder you were depressed. Who wouldn't be? I am doubling up on the prayers starting tonight!!! And sending loads of (((cyberhugs))) your way.

I pray that the diuretics do the trick and that you get some good answers soon (with some good "fixes!!!"). Have you talked to Niki and Harpoon about the adult CHD group that they belong to? There might be someone on there who has gone through what you are going through. Please get to feeling better and do keep us posted as now I really will be worrying when I don't hear from you.

Much love to you all.
