    Hey im from west virginia too. I hope you log in soon so we can chat
  2. Right now I'm on disability for my heart issues and I have to get my cardiologist clearance first before I can do any physical therapy especially since I'm having Issues with blood pressure fluctuating between low and super high. So I'm going to get that straight Ned out then to see my pcp about getting my knee finally x rayed. Possibly physical therapy. Plus my depression has gotten worse since surgery. All I wanna do is stay in the house and watch tv. Hopefully I can get my meds tweaked or added. I'm pretty limited to what I can take cause of my heart and seizure. I have adult adhd however I can't take the meds to treat It cause of my heart. I have my disability review next yr so I have a feeling they will make me go back to work due to my heart Dr doesn't feel I'm disabled anymore. Like I told the Dr I'm under no stress so my heart would be doing good. It's when I'm back to work and under20x more stress like I was before I had my first heart attack will be key plus the weight loss on top. My hubby is having his gallbladder removed the 28th and will be off 4-6 weeks. I hope I can keep my sanity lol.
  3. Hi!

    Just checking in. I know you were having a rough time there for awhile.

    I remember you saying that you were having a tough time with exercise. I am not being personal, but are you on disability? I am, and was able to have my doctor give me a letter which I took to a local physical therapy facility and signed up with them for some special exercise thereapy. They are trying to work with me and my health problems; I have fibromyalgia, psoriatic arthritis, a genetic foot problem (wear braces on both my feet) and also I, like I think you had the same problem, I have a really bad low back pain that makes walking distances very difficult.
    I am still learning the exercises that they have planned out for me that I can do in my home, and feel a lot better being able to take control of this aspect of my journey. Don't know for sure if this will work for you as well but it is definitely helping me.

    I am still in a stall (5+ weeks) so I am hoping eventually the exercise and fine tuning of what I am eating will help.
    You and I are only a few weeks apart in this process - so hopefully we will both be able to make the success of this program that will help us feel better.

    Hugs,
    Kathy

    I am counting the days with you. Much success to you. HAVe you had your pre-surgical nutrition session? My session is tomorrow morning. This is a group session and others scheduled for the same day will be there meeting with our program coordinator and the nutritionist. On the 13th is pre-surgical anesthesia registration. Propoful was a dynamic anethetic for my Endoscopy and Colonocopy. I awakened with not a quiver of nausea, no headache, and feeling as though I rested for three days uninterrupted. I learned a great deal. I want the same medication for surgery. I pray it works just as well fore a longer period.
    Much success to you.
