My crappy heart update -- I'm doing fine
Family and Friends - This will be news to some of you and an update for others. I came in to the hospital about a week and a half ago no w/my v-tac and my difibulator going off. They tried a new med, it didn't work and the docs performed an ablation on Monday, Feb 22. We thought that had worked, but ultimately it didn't. They've tried another medication, one I had to take 3 days with monitoring, but that didn't work either. So they'd scheduled another ablation for me today. We just got some great news though -- as we waited to go down for the ablation, the doc came in and said that my latest course of meds IS working, I haven't had another v-tac since yesterday morning. That means I won't be having another ablation today! We'll be here a couple more days observing me on this new dose and if all stays quiet I should be home by Thursday. Keep the prayers coming - Peace and Joy - John
