Dear Barbara,

Probably the docs can give you treatment. . .
Do you like the doc/s?

My heart is breaking
 

Thank you Bobby and Jo.

At the moment I am very sad. :cry: I called Bobby up not long ago and told him I'd been doing some thinking and that I think it would be best if we cooled things off for awhile. He said okay. I told him I'd try to get another ride for my stress test on Tuesday and he asked me if I was sure and I said yes. I told him to take it easy and hung up. Gosh darn it hurts so bad but the relationship was not going where I wanted it to so I had to do it.

Hi Barbara

I'm so sorry to hear about your heart condition. i read that it is manageable however. I'm sorry about Bobby too. I hope you can find someone supportive to give you that ride. take care.

Thank you Waves.

The doctor told me yesterday that they are not sure I have congestive heart failure yet. He said that was just want they suspect and had to put that down for the insurance to pay.

I've slept all day today as I just want to forget Bobby.

I don't know a lot about congestive heart failure for itself. But I've had a heart murmur all my life. And its been something that has been watched.
And in the last couple of years I've noticed they are having more and more trouble hearing my heart. But its just part of me I hope at least.

I have a sister that has what is called micro ? valve prolapse and its something very similar to my heart murmur. But she is one that handles it lots different than I would or do. So I would say one thing to this.

I've learned in all my years of having my heart watched, and my eye and a few other parts of my body. That if you can just help them watch and not try to worry its much better. I had the luck of starting as a kid that didn't know any better.

I honestly thought the worst thing that could happen to me was to get stuck in my hand or foot to get blood drawn.
