Gita... the 'panic' is over now but the letdown is hiding in a quiet place inside...

If you think I have courage and forbearance Gita, then maybe I do have just a LITTLE or you wouldn't see ANY.

An appt. with the cardiogal is in place so we shall see what we shall see.

You doing ok?

Love ya,

to Dyane... I can right now visualize your cute 'round face'...

As you read other posts I know you have read that I'm doing better today. I still feel that cold 'lump' in the middle of my gut but there is nothing I can do about that lump but treat it when the time comes.

I have appt. with cardiogal on the 19th and I'm fairly certain she will now do the right heart cath. We doz what we gotta do, huh.

Those slow burn thingy's can last far too long can't they. Well you can't do anything about her any longer so here's hoping you can dump the slow burn. Let's both of us take a deeeep breath and accept the things we cannot change. OK? Here goes...Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.

Gee, I feel better!

Re: From MamaSher

Mama Sher,Sorry your day was less than ideal shall we say. No Sjogrens is good, mild PH yeah they keep saying that about me too along with the heart murmur no one seems too excited about. My Cardiologist after my cath said the good news was I would live a long time with my heart....the bad news was I would live a long time with my heart and my lungs! LOL Basically I think that means my lungs will kill me long before the heart will. Like Bruce has said echos can be misleading and maybe yours will show lower pressure under the cath like his did. Sometimes after these days of one test after another I feel like you and just want to go to bed and pull the covers in after me. I'm still doing a slow burn over the nurse who made me feel guilty about wanting a flu shot. But tomorrow is Friday, I am babysitting my wonderful granddaughter Sat night and with any luck I will get a home made tamale when I do so off to bed I go after I go kill some zombies on the computer.
