    Defection

    Most of us were not aware of the other site until Hank sent the email out and the Ross da man thread was started. And if they were doing as you said they were Lyn than by all means I disagree with that also. And there is no need for that. When i make general statements it is to try to word it...

    Defection

    I am referring to some of the comments in this thread and the previous thread about ross titled ross is da man ( which he is). That seemed like they were totally uncalled for. I am not passing judgement what-so-ever but alot of those posts sure were said in anger and never should have been...

    Defection

    Emu, I wasn't directing my post at you but just in general to the way people are acting. And maybe the way people are acting is why the old members left in the first place and started the new web site. I see absolutely nothing wrong with one more resource for people going through this...

    Defection

    I agree completely with superbob, wise and kathy. Since when is going to another website a betrayal. I have no idea how many websites i went to before surgery and still go to when i need answers. I do think that this is childish and a waste of time. I really don't know why people are hurt by...

    Calcium Supplement Use and Increased Risk of Heart Attack

    Cleveland clinic told me to take calcium supplements twice a day after surgery as my sternum was thin and brittle. If their is a slight risk of a heart attack then so be it. I'm 35 and i would rather take my supplements and improve my bones so that when i am older i don't fall and break...

    Was 6 hrs late w/ my Warfarin last night - big deal?

    yeah i wouldn't worry about it either andy. i have been late taking it a few times. i even think once i remembered the next morning i hadn't taken it the night before and i tested fine. Now taking my medication is like second nature although there are times when I am busy that it might be an...

    Weird feeling today

    Thankfully i am finally back to normal and i went to my ob/gyn yesterday and told him about my family doctor putting me on birth control and he said that he never would have put me on birth control because of my heart condition. It took a few days to get it out of my system and now i am not...

    Weird feeling today

    CCF did my pacemaker check but since it was not a doctor that did the check they said to either make an appointment with my local cardio or make an appointment to come back to cleveland. Since I live 2 hours away from CCF I chose to try to get into my cardio so I either wouldn't have to stay in...

    Weird feeling today

    Although most of my symptoms i was getting have passed. I am still getting light-headed and dizzy. I went to cleveland clinic yesterday for a pacemaker check up and was told to have it checked out with my local cardio. So when I got home I called. Wouldn't you know it that my cardio is on...

    Weird feeling today

    i am on metoprolol succinate for afib. The controlled release one. Thing that has me wondering is my doctor put me ont birth control pills about week and a half a go because my period was really out of whack. My prior visit she said that my only option would be an ablation. I am wondering if...

    Weird feeling today

    Been getting dizzy on and off today. Then here I was sitting on the couch and got absolutely light-headed and nauseated. Got up to go tell the hubby and my legs felt like jello. And then when I started talking to him i started crying and couldn't stop. So I took a xanax and am now starting to...

    Doctor wants to adjust my dose.

    hey ross, I was looking at that link you put in here trying to find the chart where is the dosing chart. I couldn't find it. Thanks

    Coincidence?

    I would say fate. The day I went to my first cleveland clinic appointment when the hubby and I were driving after finding out that I was going to need open heart surgery a song by nickelback called "If today was your last day" came on the radio. I have the cd but that was the very first day I...

    Doctor wants to adjust my dose.

    I just go with my gut feeling when my doctor tries to go over the top with an adjustment. The last time i somewhat did what she told me to I was below range and if I had listened to her completely I probably would have been bridging with lovenox. And I have had my share of that in the last...

    Doctor wants to adjust my dose.

    convincing the doctor to allow me to self dose is going to be the test. Even though she has no clue what she is doing i have a funny feeling she won't be willing to cut me loose. That is fine I'll just let her tell the doseage change and if i don't agree with her then i'll just do what I need to.
