Ailing Weeble

[Weeble]

Sorry I have been MIA for a month or so but hadn't been feeling well. Ended up in the local ER and guess what. I have Congestive Heart Failure from undetermined cause. I have always been a good boy going to my annual physicals and the stress tests, the other less pleasant exams and doing what the doctor says, mostly. I even went in to see him back in September cause something wasn't right but we found nothing.

Anyway after four days in the hospital getting my heart drained I am on meds (first time in my life for anything), a low sodium diet and some restrictions on fluid intake. They are confident they can manage the condition (its permanent) if I comply with their orders (no problem here.)

lesson learned: trust your instincts, if you don't feel right keep pursuing it don't let your BP get to 187:155 before heading the the hospital. Soon as my meds get adjusted better so my head is clear most of the time I will be back on my story!
