Pete's problems

[sassy59]

I don't often post but do like to read what others have to say but today Pete got a letter saying he may have sarcoidosis in the heart muscle. He had an MRI heart scan in July and apparently the hospital tried to phone us but did not get through. No idea why but will check. Pete is going to hospital on Friday for a Novacor test for one week. He has to push a button if he gets chest pain and it will take a reading, then he goes for an Angiogram on the 23rd to find out what is going on with his heart as he has become more and more breathless on exertion of any kind.

It has all come as a bit of a shock really but we will get through. Still no word about the MRI scan for his back though. Sleep well all. xxx

Poor Pete - it's wonderful that he has you to give him the emotional support. You both need a HUGE hug - wish I could give it to you, but I am sending it. Good luck with the results. nite nite....

Hi Sassy,sorry to hear of your probs.Hope Pete gets some good results from his tests.

I'm glad you both have each other for support.

I would question how the hospital took so long to contact you,something not right there!

I sincerely wish him well,do let us know how it goes,

Hugs & love to you both xxx

Oh I will be asking questions Wendells. Even if they could not get through on the phone, a letter could have been sent out much sooner. We are getting used to having to wait though now unfortunately. I will let everyone know how Pete gets on and wishing you well too. xxxx

Dear Sassy I am so sorry to hear of Pete's additional problem and worry. I hope he will get some good news when he has his tests. Thinking of you both. Lots of lovexxx

[sassy59 in reply to jenss]

Thanks jenss, hope you and the family are doing well. xxxx

Crossing everything for you both Sassy. The only good thing I see about this is that at least his doctors seem to be proactive and keeping a good eye on him. So many of the doctors we hear about on this forum are careless about checking out extra symptoms. Wishing for the best result possible !

[sassy59 in reply to Hidden]

I agree Argana and I am grateful something is being done. Thank you xxxx

[sassy59 in reply to Suzy6]

We are both lucky to have each other and our family close by too. Thanks for your kind wishes Suzy and Pete has lots of fight left in him yet. Best wishes to you too. xxxx

So sorry for you and Pete - especially when you should have had a phone call. On the positive side at least he is getting the medical attention he needs and will hopefully help him. Take good care of each other, lots of love TAD xx
