I've been emailing with one of the students in my husband's adult college degree classes. Here's the message we got last night. I left it unedited so you can see how stressed out she is.
Spent all day toady at Lutheran Hospital. More, EKG stuff, lab work and chest xrays, the symptoms are worse, and now have increased to what i call chills and sweats,,, my heart will start that shakin thing for lack of a better way to describe it and then i get cold and then get clamy and then break into sweats like i will pass out....i have been there several times this last two weeks.
I cried a lot today I guess I am feeling the strain of what the heck is wrong with me an why cant they figure it out. They say they know its real and they just dont know what to do about it. I dont know who to ask anymore so I guess that doesnt help. I take enough meds to kill a person and i cant sleep. I am sure that doesnt help. They are going to let me have the surgery on the 6th for the precancer stuff and for now they say try not to worry and come in when u need us..... I know they are trying to help but to be honest I cant even think straight
I told her I'd ask you-all for anything you can offer--a guess at what's happening, recommendation for doctor, treatment, hospital. She lives in Fort Wayne, Indiana, so Cleveland Clinic is an option.
Thanks, friends!
