Interesting...

Well, the Cardiologists thats on call, Dr. Olsen (he's partners with my cardio's) said that they are under the belief that this reoccurence is not caused by exercise and that it would have happened no matter what. That I should and can start exercising when I feel up to it! I don't need to slow down.
The thing is is that they don't know what's caused this reoccurence, but it happens. And honestly I've been having symptoms of pre-occurence for a while. Ankles swelling (he doesn't know regarding the heart how much this has to do with it, but I am not a swollen person, and I think it does correlate), when I lay on my sides I can't have D put his arm around me as it causes extra pressure, I've been short of breath kind of easy when I go up stairs, ect. So, what he has suggested is me going on a drug called Colchicine for a year.
Okay, so he doesn't know what is causing this, he doesn't know how the medicine works (its used for Gout) but it works, so he wants to put me on it, and for a year?? NO THANK YOU. I will see my Cardio, both of them, and then maybe another and then, if they all say it, then I will. I asked if he had a daughter and asked when his answer was yes, if he'd put her on it and he said yes, because I've had a reoccerence.

I am hesitant to go on anything for a long period of time. Like he said, any medicine is a poison of a type. Mmmmm....

Its funny, how when you get sick, each specialist sees and thinks of things in their unique form of medicine, and they all can give you different answers. I joked, is there a lymphologist that can tell me about my swelling? That is the most annoying part of this. I've been swollen for a long time. Each night taking off my socks and pants I have large and deep divits in my skin from the swelling. Its not normal. I need to start doing homework and seeing other specialist at this point! Any Seattlites know of some kick ass cardio's? Lymphologists?
