Brazilian In Winnipeg

8 months ...

So, tomorrow I fly to Bulgaria.

Wednesday, February 9, I will be seen by the team of Prof.. Grozdinski. It will be exactly 8 months since I had the first angioplasty.

I'm worried .... and if we could not do anything for me?? I would be very difficult to accept this fate.

But with all the positive energies that are transmitted to me these days, I think it should be okay.

So I'll be back after February 9!

Why Can You Have A Low Cervix?

7 months later ...

These seven months that I had angioplasty!

In October I had the pleasure of going three weeks in North Carolina to go snowmobiling. What a wonderful trip! Over 2,000 km of mountain bike in the Blueridge Parkway.

Unfortunately, on my return, stiffness and spasms were resettled subtly.

In November, the 15th, I go to Barrie, the clinic of Dr. Sandy MacDonald to spend a doppler to check my 2 jugular. The left is very beautiful. The right, where the stent, looks beautiful too. The flow is good. Nothing to report.

Yet stiffness, spasms and cramps are increasingly present and my feet again become blue nowhere. What's going on?

January 7, I go with a Doppler interventionist radiologist at CHUM and according to him, the stent is completely blocked ... Nothing to do!

The hematologist gives me a series of 6 months of anti-coagulant.

Who to believe? Who will see? How to find the truth in all this hullabaloo?

What I know is that I have more and more difficulty walking. I have spasms, stiffness and cramps to the point where I need to be medicated, which was not even the case before surgery. My feet have returned to blue. I sleep little at night because of pain and spasms no longer tired.

regression
What! I might be able to face the situation if it arose but a lot more difficult than I thought!

me What choices do they stay??

Here ...
We forget that. I'm doomed! It only deals with the complications and a blocked stent is not a complication!

Wait ...
Wait? I expect more over the issue crystallizes, right??

Back in Bulgaria ...
is a lot of money. I contacted Dr. Iloska and they can repeat angioplasty to unblock the stent.

Try the U.S. ...
is even more money. I contacted a doctor in California who could do the procedure and has a good success rate.


I go back and return it every day in my head ...

I expect a reply from Dr. Petrov who is head of cardiac surgery at the hospital Toduka. But the more I go back in my head, the more I do not see that this solution ...


Now I only take lotto tickets!!

How Long Should Std Blood Tests Take

4 months ... and a vascular surgeon! Already

Before angioplasty, I met Dr. Richard who was still septic. When I met him last September 22, his attitude had changed radically.


When he read the report and seen the pictures, he was fascinated by what the human machine could do. As a vascular surgeon, he was outraged that we do not want to look at this situation ... Blocked veins, it must be diagnosed!

So he agreed to do my follow-up and make me spend a venous ultrasound to see the state of the stent and perhaps the state of the left jugular. I say maybe because the ultrasound we could see it was blocked, only to angiography it has been detected!

In the same week, Dr. Richard called me by letting me # its staff to ask if I would agree to talk to the wife of one of his patients with MS.

That's how we began to see each other people!

Now my health ...

past few weeks, I feel more and more numbness in the legs and increasing stiffness and spasms in my right leg. It makes me panic a little!

Maybe I would have left jugular resténosée??

I keep still although I have my energy declines ... Too much activity, not enough rest??

My bladder is fine, my hormonal cycle seems stable, my feet are still pink and swollen.

short, the rest required for the coming weeks and a small ultrasound. Then we'll see where it takes us!

Bulgaria is surely a great place to revisit!

Tourlou!

Where To Buy Cajun Boat Parts

3 months ... An angel named

Hey! Yes! Already 3 months!

life resumed its course smoothly. I'm learning to deal with all these changes.

What is wonderful is that it gets better still ... Small things but still very subtle improvement.

Yes, there are days where I feel I'm regressing, where things are not going well, where I have no energy, my bladder where playing tricks on me, where my legs dropped ... But it does not last, only a few days and it decreases with rest. But yes, there is a roller coaster!

My biggest problem is that I am not yet able to not exceed my limits. Unfortunately, after I pay for. This week, I had to walk 500 or 600 meters. A feat for me. But I was 3 or 4 days on the floor!

I also saw my neurologist this week. Meeting cordial, even friendly. She was especially happy that I am able to take care of myself side followed. I think that neurologists hate most is when their patients ask them to follow up as blood tests, the Doppler etc.. It is true that it is not their field. Good to know knocking on doors!

At the end of my meeting, she asked me to explain the procedure to the new nurse. While I was chatting with her, neuro came and asked me if I would talk with a patient who was interested in surgery.

What change in attitude!

The local newspaper came to follow up ... Here is the article!



Enjoy life ... it is a precious gift!!
