Guest guest Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 well after the last three weeks in and out of the hospital fro severe cardiac problems, i'm out. first my bp went up to 196/158 and they could not get it down. after 4 days in the hospital i got out and the next morning i took my meds which was new the coreg, and fell back to the hospital, thank god for my wife and daughter, theycalled rescue. they could not find a pulse or bp, the er nurse told me after that my feet were modeled(first signs of death). wellafter a few more episodes of heart problems, they did a angiogram, catheter in groin up to the heart and of course found nothing, all was normal. this included severe shortness of breath, chest pain, rapid heart beat around 190. finally, hopefully my biopsies of two muscles and the sural nerve for vasculitis is scheduled at usc on monday. three cuts in my better leg does not thrill me, but they think more than sure that this will definitely diagnose the neurosarcoid systemic and neuromuscular sarcoid. i was first diagnosed by lymphnode biopsy in april, yet having these severe problems for over 7 years. and hope to start on some treatment of prednisone or immunosuppresent drugs to help slow this down. hope everyone is well, keep going and have faith!!!!\ ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
