I lived...

and posted a big ol' fun post about my experience...and then the phone rang; I hit a wrong key and lost the whole post somewhere.

Suffice it to say I sailed through the TTE and the Cardioversion...I heard today (the phone call) that my coumadin level is good...but I need to take more of this ghastly potassium shit. The pills are big enough to choke a horse and must be taken 3 times a day now, with food...goddamitall, I don't eat 3 times a day on my BEST day. GRRR

I'm STILL packing 13 pounds of excess fluid....so that's fairly miserable...but hopefully it will fade...thank goodness my hands and arms aren't bloated up too. Just elephant feet, ankles n' legs. Hurts though...

But my heart is no longer racing or out of rhythm...that's quite nice.

Anyway...so far so good...

OH BTW....I'm thinking of starting another Group...at Windows Live....It is MUCH simpler to join, find, use, and enjoy. PLUS if you have Messenger, live CHAT would be possible for those within the group with messenger....


Any discussion?

It may have to wait until I get back...but I think I'll try it anyway. The one group I belong to now is working nicely, and it's easy peasy pie as just a discussion board. Anybody can post/reply/paste pictures, links, whatever. All the old Multiply group likes it much better.

I'll try to sort it out before I go...

Sheesh...I'd missed reading this blog! Sometimes it just gets too much. I've been looking in the Multiply one.

I've read the previous posts now, and am glad to see that all went well. Maybe potassium is IT?! There's a lot of talk about potassium these days.

That would be a good thing, right?! Then it would be treatable.

Windows LIVE is good. Go for it :)
