kathy, please let me know if I can be of any help... We are not that far apart!

Thank you so much Brandi for your kind offer! I will definitely keep you in mind.

I decided to be a bit brave and call DH's ENT doctor from a few years back. She used to be the head of ENT at Georgetown University and is top notch all round. I asked for her to call me back and discuss options as well as see him if she can!

As soon as I did that I felt so much better!

And my mom is back in the hospital because her blood pressure is now sky high.

Thanks everyone!

Today's status update:

Mom is still in the hospital because they can't get her blood pressure down.

DH is holding his own with the steroids but weak and still running a fever then taking tylenol.

The good news is that we got him an appointment for Tuesday morning with an excellent cardiac specialist recommended by DH's ENT (who actually worked with the cardiologist at Georgetown University.) This guy is on every list for recommended specialists so I am hopeful he can help diagnose what is wrong!

Cross your fingers and keep your prayers up everyone!

BUMP!
 
Today so far:

Mom was released from the hospital and is under nurse's care at her residential retirement home.

DH is home and running low fevers but relatively okay. We have decided to take him to a different hospital if his temp goes up to 101 and to start the diagnosis process all over.

We are a bit worried about the holiday weekend coming up with doctors etc. being away.

I can't believe we are on our own with all this....

Kathy, you are not alone!:hug::hug:

Kathy, you are not alone!:hug::hug:

Thanks PiO and Jean!

I know Jo; it just feels that way in making these medical decisions but I hope that Tuesday's doctor helps guide us to the right tests and treatment.

DH is so weak and having problems breathing etc.

Have a good holiday weekend all! ;)

BUMP!
 
Congratulations on 24K Brandi.....you should come on the 'New' countdown thread on the gamer's board that Kimmar started.
