Best wishes and prayers for your recovery, my friend.hey guys,
thanks for your support.
Unfortunately, not really.
It seems "something" (docs wont say vaccine for sure, but for me the timing is proof enough) crashed my whole system.
Every blood value was more or less off (ALT/AST several 100, GGT over 100, creatinine high.. but those bloods were drawn after i got a contrast fluid for the MRT, so dont know how that affected them), i had nausea and very strong stomach pain from sunday to wendesday morning, high pulse, shortness of breath
My heart ejection fraction is back down to only a touch above 20% which makes me extremely sad since i was on such a good way. Ive felt strong, i had energy etc etc and now i am almost back to baseline, feeling sluggish etc.
On saturday ive released myself from hospital because the docs seemed to not know what they were doing.
on tuesday my lungs were x-rayed and they saw water (which i knew and heard). i got lasix 80mg morning 40mg midday to get it out.
By wednesday afternoon my nausea was gone and i had immense appetitet and ate like a horse.
to determine, if i still had water, they simply put me on a scale in the morning.
Thursday weight was up due to the eating and what did they do? 80mg more lasix, patient got more water again
Ive told them about the eating etc. but they simply didnt want to listen, they have their Schema and this is what they do.
friday and saturday ive felt like crap due to dehydration. Could barely stand up etc.
Also, i was put on entresto again although ive told them i didnt feel well the last 2 times ive tried. (ignored, i should try again)
the hardest thing right now is mental.
ive worked hard to get back to the novembre EF of over 40%.
now i am at 20 again. I was so happy what ive achieved, that i could do sports, was strong and full of energy.
now i am nothing but a shadow of myself from 2 weeks ago.
May God send His angels to watch over you, spread their wings over you to protect you and keep you from all harm.
Remember Psalm 91:
"He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust."
I just had open heart surgery myself last Sunday, 6 vessel CABG (coronary artery bypass grafting). The butchers may technically have saved my life, but they physically ruined me and killed whoever I used to be. I am not me anymore. This is not who I used to be.
If you can't be who you want to be anymore, what is the point of life?
Now I'm miserable, can't sleep because of the broken sternum and other endless pain, feel awful and weak all the time.
I honestly wish I never woke up from surgery at all, and that when I lay down tonight, I never wake up in the morning.
But if God still has work for me to do in the world, then I must abide here a while longer. For now.
If I could take your pain and put it on myself, truly I would. At least then my life would mean something.
God bless you and heal you and restore you to good health. I will pray for you. Please pray for me also.
