They say I have congestive heart failure. Long story short. Fluid in the bottom of my lungs. No pneumonia. Just making it hard for my heart to pump. And for me to Breathe Right. They gave me something to make me go pee! A lot! It has started to work. LOL... I'm in good spirits, will probably have to see a cardiologist and have more tests. Hoping it will be the easy fix that this doctor mentioned. A water pill a day. But for now I'm still woozy can't stand up straight I fall back when I tried to get up so I need a lot of help to walk around because I just can't stay up. I sure appreciate the prayers. My husband and my son, that came to see me both hold the priesthood so they gave me a blessing it was beautiful. Helped calm some of my anxiety for sure.

Such great news!

I am surprised you can still see straight enough to type after that much excitement.

It sounds manageable!

My Dad had congestive heart failure but he also had Multiple Schelerosis so could not walk--leads to stuff like that

Cynthia, Prayers for your healing. Take it easy, and don't push yourself... other than to get to the bathroom, and then, ask for help! Are you using a walker or a cane? If not, please do so. if you don't have one available, many town offices or doctors offices have them available to loan out.

Lasix is sometimes used....
Lasix (Furosemide)
""Furosemide is a loop diuretic (water pill) that prevents your body from absorbing too much salt, allowing the salt to instead be passed in your urine. Furosemide treats fluid retention (edema) in people with congestive heart failure, liver disease, or a kidney disorder such as nephrotic syndrome.""

I've been told twice my brain scans show MS. Alaska, not typing, talking. I've been admitted, I'll have an echo tomorrow.

I am impressed! My son has tried to get the text to speech thing to work for him.... it always ends up typing scrambled junk! Your speech to text work's great!

I talk very slow. It works much better that way. And normally, I am a fast talker so I've Been Told.
