This is my recent health update as of today:
I now have the results from when I went to the hospital on Thursday for more tests.
The clots are not growing, but they also are not shrinking. (D-Dimer test is negative for new forming clots)
"there is a saddle pulmonary embolus involving the main, right, and left pulmonary arteries. This extends into the right
upper, right lower, left upper, and left lower lobe pulmonary arteries."
There is pericardial effusion (fluid around my heart)
The is death of lung tissue in the left upper lobe.
There is scarring in both kidneys and within the liver.
I will discuss with doc tomorrow regarding hosp to pull fluid off of heart.
Remember, try a 10 percent change in 2010! If you take off 10 percent of excess weight, it's a victory! If you exercise 10 percent more, you benefit. If you change 10 percent of your bad habits - you will be paid back 100 fold with new developments in your life.
Keep going, friends. One step at a time, one day at a time.
