No place like home…

Thank you all for your kind thoughts and prayers.

Thursday afternoon I wasn’t feeling well with chest pains and extreme nausea.  I won’t go into details but I have quite a few health issues.  I did feel better by bedtime Thursday evening and Friday morning I ran a few errands.  By Friday afternoon I was feeling tough and my daughter took me to the emergency room at the hospital where I was admitted.  Yesterday morning I had another stress test (treadmill, heart pics, etc.)  Three heart enzymes blood test showed it was not my heart. In my cardiologists words, “Your heart is fine let’s blame this all on your stomach.”  I just had an endoscopy a few months ago and the results were erosive gastritis.   I have had ulcers in the past.  Anyway after an 11 hour rest at home in my own bed I feel much better.

I am on a whole new set of meds which will take some getting used to and I am allergic to so many med that I don’t know how that will turn out.

I am resting this morning and I hope to feel well enough to go with my daughter to the Marigold Festival this afternoon.

Bless you all.  Stay safe and be happy!!

Beth

  27. Let us believe that these meds are going to be just what you need and that they are not going to cause any toxicity. Here's praying that you'll be feeling much better and able to do all that you'd like to do. It is zero fun to be feeling punky. Take care now...
