Guest guest Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Thanks for this! My only sister (only sibling, as well) passed away in 2002...it's been really hard for me. I miss her so much. Lately, and mostly since I found this site, I have been opening up to women again. It's been very healing for me. Being sick with implants turned me inward and I became very isolated for a long time. I'm implant-free for almost 6 months! WoooHoooooo!!

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2007 Report Share Posted April 5, 2007 For the last several days I have been having chest pain , no problem ...well last night I almost called 911( pain hit new all time high and even had some nausea) . Instead the paramedic in me decided to wait till this morning and see a doc . My ekg strongly suggests that I have an enlarged atrium , and we both know that the treatment for that if the patient is symptomatic is a transplant . This is why I havent been online much over the last 3 days . Anyway I had an echo done today they also did my carotid arteries , next is another treadmill . I should get the results by next the 10th dealing with appoinments "medical" chores/feeling like a science experiment When I say that it is a fight to get my records, I mean that nothing gets done in Baltimore/ Washingtin metropolitan area unless one talks face to face with a human!I am so exhausted that when I went to the hospital to fill out the release, it felt like a struggle just to get in the dang building, then we are running all over here and there, getting MRI films for s Hopkins second opinion, billing mess ups and then my hands are so tingly I can barely fill out the forms!
