First I went to Sav La Mar and what a mistake. I will write more later but I want to go rest for now. Missed you all and hope to get on the net tomorrow. </div></div>
Glad your home ((Jamiss))))

Re: november musings
I still feel a little wiped out and don't do much of anything. Doctor's orders. He also doesn't want me traveling yet, so I guess I return on my regular schedule of Dec 21.
Was off the net for awhile because of high winds which caused the 4G not to work.
Still want to tell the horror story of Sav but I need to get off soon, so will leave it for another day.Comment

Re: november musings
Because I was feeling very poorly and Ted and I discussed my health, I decided to return to the States. Arrived last Saturday. Talked to my family and decided to go to the doctor on Monday instead of going to the hospital on the weekend. Monday went to the cardiologist's office. He was in surgery and they told my daughter to take me to the emergency dept. They admitted me. The cardiologist showed up later, but I was having excellent care anyway. He had xrays taken of my chest and everything is fine there. He ordered one of those tests that checks the heart with dye. Found that it is not contracting as strong as it should, but I have no blockages. I do have a lot of calcification due to age. I don't understand that since I am only 39.
What was causing all the chest pain and coughing, as well as the bad pains in the stomach was the medication given to me in Jamaica. I didn't stop taking it however, until the US cardiologist took me off them and prescribed others. What a difference! I still have some of the cough but it decreases with each passing day. The stomach pains are gone as well as the tightness in the chest.
I think I will stick around in the US for awhile until I know things are running smoothly, maybe January for return to Jamaica. Also will have the holidays with my family for the first time in 6 years.
Life is good! I came through a heart attack and found out the heart looks good, with just some problem with contraction.Comment

JamaicaMiss
I am so glad you are safe and sound at home. I was worrying about you! I realize MoBay Hope is wonderful...a friend extolled virtues of her care there with her heart problem a few years back...unfortunately, it is still a ways away though, and my friend didn't make it the last time she needed to. Instead, she opted to try to at least make it to Sav, where she passed away.
Take care of yourself hon, and you will be back with your sweetie soon!
Good morning all! I'm busy as a cat trying to cover up crap on a marble floor these days but it's all good! Hope all is well with everyone...Comment

Re: november musings
jamaica miss i'm glad you came home - i know you miss ted but getting checked out in the good ole usa will help you live another day - that's interesting about the medicine you got in jamaica - just goes to show the differences in medical care - just follow your doctor's advice - watch what you eat - and you'll be back in jamaica in no time - i'm sure your family is going to love having you home for the holiday
