Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: CapriUni Date: 22 Jan 10 - 06:08 PM Just found this thread, today, Kat. First things first: {{{KAT}}} Hugs. Second: I know we've been full out with others who have been in much more need Ah, I know that Brain-refrain well, and boy, it sure does get to be a tired chorus! So I'll remind you, just as I remind myself: "This is not a misery contest. There's no grand judge out there, measuring each person's need. And when we have a need, no matter how 'big' or 'small,' it is a good thing to ask for help." |

Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: katlaughing Date: 22 Jan 10 - 06:47 PM Ah...maybe we can have a adjunct group for the guys? CU, thanks so much, esp. for the reminder! |
Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: katlaughing Date: 08 Feb 10 - 04:21 PM Things have been a lot better. But, I would like to ask for a few supportive thoughts for tomorrow afternoon around 545p Mudcat time. I have a yearly with the cardiologist. I actually will be seeing his PA who is really good and a woman, so that is GOOD. After the fiasco last summer being bullied by my now ex-PCP, going to the cardio, then, who said we needed to check for "loose stitches" around the new heart valve, I really don't want to be involved with male docs at the moment! (He had them make an appt. for a echo three weeks from the day I saw him.) After all of the anxiety was spent, Rog and I both decided he wasn't serious as he would have sent me to hospital right then and there. So I cancelled the echo. Tomorrow will routine ekg in the office, etc. Rog will be with me. Thanks! |
Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: VirginiaTam Date: 08 Feb 10 - 04:28 PM will try to remember to think at you before my bedtime which is just before you see the doc. |

Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: SINSULL Date: 08 Feb 10 - 04:36 PM Always here for you, Miss Kitty. Try not to stress out about it. Think about Morgan's upcoming CD. Mary |
Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: katlaughing Date: 08 Feb 10 - 05:46 PM Ah, a triumverate from the ES! Thanks, my Sisters.:-) Morgan's CD, yes, well...seems the school sent him home, today. THEY claim he has chickenpox, but he's been vaccinated. So, I will not see him today. Will wait until he goes to the doc. He seems fine. |

Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: katlaughing Date: 08 Feb 10 - 10:29 PM Thank you, my dear friends. I may have goofed. I didn't get a phone message from the cardio's office until this evening. They wanted to confirm and asked me to call them back. Well...I can't call them until 9a, so I may have to reschedule. So, maybe hold those thoughts, please, and I'll get back to you, though could still be on for tomorrow. luvya and thanks! kat |

Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Date: 09 Feb 10 - 07:51 AM You have my warm loving thoughts every day. I'm turning up the volume and joining the circle of love for you! If it IS at the time you said, I'll be on my way to my wonderful womens' chorus rehearsal and will sing to you all evening through.

Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: SINSULL Date: 09 Feb 10 - 08:00 AM Good morning, Miss Kitty. We await the news of your appointment and continue to send happy thoughts. Looking back at your posts from late January, it does look as if you are coming out of the worst of your slump. Keep doing what you are doing. SINS |

Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: SINSULL Date: 09 Feb 10 - 11:28 AM You know, Jacqui, other than inflicting tours of the Christmas Tree Shop and the resulting hideobilia on unsuspecting visitors to Maine, we haven't done any serious harm to anyone. Kendall doesn't count. We plan, we scheme, we plot and in the end we make people happy. What are we doing wrong? And what are you promising Bobert? |
Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: jacqui.c Date: 09 Feb 10 - 11:34 AM You don't think that the hideobilia is enough? I don't think that we have really been trying to do the worst we can. |
Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: katlaughing Date: 09 Feb 10 - 11:49 AM It is on for today. Thanks Mudcatters! |

Subject: RE: BS: A request from kat - in the home stretch From: katlaughing Date: 09 Feb 10 - 07:48 PM Gee whiz, you're like a puppy that needs to pee!:-) We got back just a little bit ago. They are happy with me in that I am 12 pounds less than when they saw me a year ago, despite all the prednisone and crap last summer. They did an ICG, which is way better than an EKG, I guess, because it tells them a whole bunch of stuff about how the heart is working. She said they don't focus on just one of the measurements, but consider them all together and she was okay with what she saw. It was good. Turns out I have not had an echo since before surgery which will be five years this May! I know I cancelled a couple for later in the year because of insurance deductibles and then wound up not going, but I don't know why I haven't had ANY at all. So, tomorrow they will call me with an appt. time for that and I'm to go give blood to check on my electrolytes etc. Everything seems to be fine except that I still have to use O2 during the day. I and a couple of other docs think it has mostly to do with the extra twenty pounds gained when I had pneumonia; my lungs sound fine. But, we need to have an echo anyway just because we haven't since the surgery. I am Health and thank you, my friends. kat (VTam, I like that spelling!) |
