Re: Jolene or any other with CHF/Debbie (IMPORTANT)

[Guest guest]

Debbie....GET HER TO THE DOCTOR (immediately)!!!!!

Has she started coughing....like a bronchitis cough, with no cold symptoms??

Yes, these are CHF symptoms...this is the stage my Mom was at when she was

first diagnosed with CHF...she had had the labored breathing for many months

before the cough started....no other symptoms at ALL!!! We thought the

labored breathing was just b/c she was wearing down and getting old....had we

been

aware or knowledgable, we could have had her diagnosed a lot sooner and

treated. CHF is treatable!! Heart attack and/or strokes are, of course, what

you

want to avoid!!!

Double Dog Drag Mom to the doctor, especially if she's not on any meds for

CHF, yet....or at the very least call him and tell him what's going on.

Remember my Mom had the breathing symptoms for quite a while before the cough

started, but she could have been on meds all that time to help her and protect

her....not to frighten you, but Mom died 6 wks. after the coughing started

being hospitalized 4 weeks and then sent home the last 2 wks. Also, remember

my

Mom was almost 99 yrs. old...so tell your Mommy, she needs to go to the dr.

I SAID SO!!!! LOL

I miss my Mom sooooo much!!!

Lots of hugs and prayers, Donelle
