A update..........

We have been here before and I said I don't like posting personal health issues on the forum.It is only me here with a proxy who knows nothing of this site or me on it.
So I felt the need to explain if you suddenly see my posts stop.And this has nothing to do with anything else but my current situation

On Tuesday morning I am heading back to the hospital for a second Angioplasty to see why I am still having problems with chest compression and shortness of breath.This has gone on since Dec and hasn't improved.I'm told it is to check only because of the bleed in my brain/stroke, to put in another stent with blood thinners is very high risk.I am hoping I am not force to make a bad decision while laying on the table that would either kill me or render me helpless for the rest of my life with another stroke.It is certainly scarey times.

Thanks for understanding,

Gary

I hope they don't need to force you into a decision. I recently sat in the hospital with my Dad while the doctors scanned him for a catheter. It turned out that they didn't find a blockage and I hope the same for you!

What I did was copy and paste the same msg on 3 of the 5 sites I surf because I live alone and I wanted people to know if I show up missing what happened.

For them to find nothing is almost as bad as them finding a blockage because then it doesn't explain why I have been so sick for so long holding up my projects.There will be no cutting on me.My Dad had two by-pass surgeries and for the remainder of his life he was never the same.

It may amount to nothing,but in the worst case I wanted you guys to know what is happening with is cranky old*#***## guy.

hoping for the best Gary

We're pulling for you Gary.

Gary I've had heart probs too, the triple bypass I had a couple of years ago was the pits and it didn't fix me up.
Anyway the missus found a video by a US medical doctor who went to Costa Rica and had stem cell therapy rather than the normal surgical bit which he doesn't think he would have survived. Tomorrow I'll post a link to that doctor.
In the meantime this is the place in Costa Rica that he went to for his treatment.
Good Luck

Hang in there Gary and update us when you can. We'll keep you in our prayers.

The update is nothing was found as a blockage.But no one yet knows why I am having the problems I am.I do know I am getting fed up with this whole thing.The side effects of the meds they took me off of to "try" to see if I felt better is the trial and error of medicine.These doctors had better come up with some solutions quick or it is going to be like the Donald Trumps show,"some body is going to get fired".

After my ear surgery last week they put me on some antibiotics. I wasn't feeling well stomac upset dizzy just plane crappy...after a week of that I looked up the side effects of the meds... yep I quit taking them and better now. If you know what there giving you look it up see what the sides are you'd be suprised to see the cure is worse than the pain, Good luck

Thoughts and prayers are with you Gary.

Gary!! It realy sucks to feel lousy but you are right YOUR FIRED!! IMHO,I myself try to find a younger doctor(embraces technology) who has the biggest ego(house) who really does not care about me in as much that he can cure anything!! Good luck!! Pete
