For those of you who have been concerned and checking back and forth, I'm FINALLY HOME. Whew. It was a whirlwind trip.
Apparently, I was having TIAs, which I thought was for Tampa International Airport, but apparently not. Results of the MRI revealed several small blood clots in the brain. My Dr is concerned and has put me on Coumadin or a blood thinner. I'm taking shots for several days. I'll have home-health care during that time and I will be on pills after that.
There was not any clots in the cardioid area, so that's good. My sugar level is fluctuating and they're trying to get that stabilized. My eye surgery is postponed for at least 6 months. My physical therapy is to be rescheduled. I go to my primary care physician tomorrow and go back to the cardiologist in one month. He will redirect my activities at that time. Until then, I am supposed to rest and not have any stress in my life. (Hahahahaha) Oh, he was serious. I will be off the prednisone by Friday and that should help with that weight gain. I'm supposed to be on a "bland" diet. I said "So, basically, if it tastes good, spit it out." Pretty much!
There are some other minor issues that my doctors are working with and hopefully those will be resolved soon.
So, Ween and I are "in our position" on the couch; I guess we're resting for a while. Thank you for all the prayers. I will let you know if there are any changes.
