I did go see the heart Doc and they found that the catheter that I am now sporting (and no it is not that kind of catheter! this one looks like a dumb bell and plugs the hole in my heart.) any ways it did not plug my holy heart. They measure my stroke risk on a level from 1-5 the first time I went in I was a 5+. Yeah I didn't have to have all the other tests they just schedules me for the surgery. The hole is suppose to be closed by the sixth month, I am in the seventh month and still flowing between a 4-5.
My problem now is do I go in and have another catheter put in??? or do I live knowing that my heart is still leaking and take a baby aspirin for the rest of my life???
The Dr said that no one has ever had a debilitating stroke after they had the cath put in and if I start having mine stroke symptoms then go in and have another cath put in.
ARRRRRRR!!!
The other thing they told me I have a slow heart rate. A normal heart rate is 60-100 resting. mine was like 47 the whole time I was getting the test which was about half an hour or so. I don't even know what that means. She told me some long name and then moved on to my holy heart.
Sorry about the rant. I did have a great time shopping and I have most of the kids Christmas. They are not getting that much this year all the sudden everything Kym wants is like 50 buck or more. So she is only getting a few things. Everything we go to buy for Dev we already have. Can I just say ARRRRRR!!!!!
