and they are not good...Pethead has a hernia in the intestines or something like that and he has to have surgery ....I have had "lots" of tias..I thought I only had 2...gotta go see a new cardiologist....I'm at very high risk of stroke right now...back on the plavix even though it rips my stomach up...will probably go on coumidin.(not sure of the spelling) They are worried about dementia (don't say it Lefty LOL) and memory loss. Which I know I already have...maybe open heart surgery if that will fix things..arrgghhh...just keep us in you're prayers...

[Noclouds]

(((Mum and Pet)))
So let me get this straight...your heart is basically pumping out little clots and they need to thin your blood??? How are your arteries???
You must stop worrying about everyone else and take some "Mum" time ok!
When do you go back???
Oh I don't like this at all and I love you both very much and I will pray earnestly!!!

My arteries are clean as a whistle....those chambers just aren't working in sync..and you're right... I'm tossing out little clots..must take an anti-coagulant.aka rat poison..LOL...what kills me is I can't eat greens...or if I do I must eat them daily..now that can get old real fast....because of the K vitamin

Mum, I want you to know that pethead & you will be in our prayers, I hope your new doctor can help you.

take care [img]graemlins/rose.gif[/img]

Wow...I see and it makes sense to me now. I really should have been a Dr.
I was asking because this is what my Grandma had cept she also had blockage in her arteries 80% in one and 90% in the other.
I am going to research some more and see what else I can learn. So Robin says you go back on Tuesday...will it be to the new Dr.?
Love You!!!

OK guys..I did it again..Wednesday evening I had another tia...went to the ER a Mission in Asheville this time....had a great ER doc (cute too)....and now I'm on coumadin and I am injecting 65 mg of lovenox into my stomach every 12 hours...talk about bleeding...I woke up at 2 am this morning in a little puddle of blood from the needle prick that I thought had finally stopped bleeding...this is some serious stuff...stop the clotting, no tias...but ya might bleed to death..wow what a trade off...I am for sure looking into surgery...I just don't want to live like this...
