pulsarnc

Currently sitting in the er at Rex heart center in Raleigh waiting for bed upstairs. Heart is acting up again( had a stent put in 2 months ago). Echocardiogram scheduled for am and go from there. Not my ideas of a fun Saturday nite .As a plus my kidney function is screwy, so got to get that looked at too

Heading home. Tests were all clear. Whatever the problem is it is not heart related. Was advised to explore the issue with my md and a gut doctor. Relieved to be headed home

Doc

Had my second heart surgery 2 days ago. Hideous experience from beginning to end. Had a quad bypass and got all the surgical complications, blood clot, infection, Afib, recent surgery to correct that. Also needed surgery for serious infection. If I had it to do over knowing what I know now I may have chosen to skip it. Hope they finally have it done after 18 months of Hell.

I really do wish you the best of luck. But they told me I needed stents at the beginning, too.

Did you eat a big greasy meal before the "heart" issue?
Bad gallbladder feels like a knife through the heart, front to back.
Thought I was having a heart attack, Doc said nope, rotten gallbladder.
Gallbladder issues seem hard to detect.
