cardiac problems
hey everyone!
nt
i apologize for being gone so long....i am dealing with a major crisis...last october and echo showed a hole in my heart (ASD/PFO) atrial septal defect with a patent foramon oval...also i am losing more than 30% of my oxygenated blood with each beat of my heart causing stress on the right side of my heart causing ventricular tachycardia...i have what is called a left to right shunt...the head of cardiology at general hospital refuses to operate and close the hole until i have reached 50% blood loss...my doctor's hands are tied and my pockets empty....mayo clinic advises to close the hole at 30% if symptoms are active...i can barely walk anymore, climb stairs, no dancing or exercise without putting my heart into major dangerous irregularities....i am ready to go the the newspaper and or mayor to ask for help...my test also shows mild regurgitation in three of my valves...my ssi was turned down three times because i do no have a lawyer...when they first found the hole i was given my state disability insurance for one year...that benefit has exhausted and now i am on the ga. next week i am seeing a lawyer as i have had to move back to a shelter and am on general assistance...here in san francisco they give you a shelter bed and 65 dollars per month. if a single room opens they may give me one of those while i wait for the lawyer to help me...however...i am on the sudden death list with the symptoms i have so i believe my father in heaven will do his will...and that is my hope...thank you for listening...love and peace to you all!
