My doc was in tears when she told me. Sent me to cardiologist and said do NOTHING until I see one. No walking to mailbox, no sweeping, mopping, dishes, etc. My appt is on Oct 17.

Prognosis? 3-5 yrs if goes well.
Oh my gosh I had no idea. I will keep you in my prayers every day like you have been for a long time. I hope that the miracle I am praying you receive comes soon. BIG HUGS!!
