I'm so sorry, Janet. It sounds like the heart failure is getting worse. Don't worry about her not understanding, I don't think Gary really understands heart failure either and he's had it for 7 years! The stress test should tell them how bad it is and give them a better idea of how to adjust her meds.

I'm so sorry for you and your mom! It's a very frightening, exhausting time. I hope and pray that she doesn't have much more pain like that, poor thing. Try to rest when you can. My prayers are with you.

Thanks everyone. We're suppose to have a snowstorm tonight into tomorrow and Mom wants to be at home. I'm thinking it's best if she was there...just in case. We'd all find a way to get to her.

I am so sorry she is back in the hospital so soon! This is exhausting, and I will keep you in my heart Janet. Mom too, of course.

Spent the morning in the hospital with Mom. They were going to do the stress test yesterday, but postponed until today. They had to postpone it today too. Found out something about her left ventricle is not open enough and if they were to get her heart beating fast it would swell even more and could easily cause her to have a heart attack. So....first thing in the morning they are going to do a nuclear (?) test so her heart doesn't have to beat fast. They said they will be able to see with some kind of dye and imaging what is exactly going on with her heart.
It's sooo hard to try and remember all the terms they give us. I do ask alot of questions and write everything down, but it can still be overwhelming when trying to tell someone what is going on. Judy....you're so right....it is exhausting. I can tell Mom is ready to cry some more, but she wouldn't today while I was there. She just wants to feel good again. Mom also said she was going to have to call her friend in Florida and let her know she probably won't be down again this year. Mom did tell me she is also tired of feeling so 'down'. I wish there was something else I could do to help her.
