Just popping in to say hi to all and hope all are doing good. Myself, well good and bad days. Last doctors appointment didn't do any good other then adding more meds. Only good thing about that is that I don't have to eat anymore. I get a full meal just on them.
The real big problem is were they placed the picc line in my arm. It kinks up often. Not a good feeling at all when I get it unkinked. It shoots a lot of Dobutamine in me all at once, making my heart go to the races. So bad that I almost black out for a bit. Next appointment, I will talk to them about moving it back into my chest.
Other then that, I did put on a few pounds of good weight. Still fighting the fluid weight every couple days were I have to hit up extra Lasix. I do have a home bound nurse that comes in once a week to draw blood. They are watching my numbers real close.
I do have something to look forward to. My family is planning a reunion in July. It has been a long time for us to all get together along with our kids/grandkids. My brothers and sisters all live far away. So this will be nice.
Well, take care and God Bless,
Paul

Good to hear your having good days, hope they come more often, just have to look forward to the reunion . Sounds like a good time and time to get to know some of them all over again, kids grow so darn fast. Keep up the good fight, and enjoy each day as it unfolds. You are lucky in your family around you. Take care of yourself and them too. God bless Jean
