I went to the Dr's and the PICC line is out. My PFT's went up to 35. So it was worth it to go one more week. I am not going to lie, I am not overly thrilled with being at 35 after a round of antibiotics, but I guess that is where I am at right now. Hopefully I won't have to go back in for awhile and the plus to that is when I do go back in I won't need a PICC line. :) Having this port is going to make that much easier for me.
So I made appointments for all my radiology related tests. Three will be done next Wednesday and then the other two are made for Friday the 19th. I am then going to make an appointment with my primary doctor for the chicken pox vaccine and also to ask her which cardiologist I should go to for the other tests, including the one I am a little nervous about, the right heart catheterization. I don't really know what it entails. It might be easy and no big deal, but I don't know.. something about it makes me nervous. I just have to relax and do one thing at a time I guess.
Doctors and medications have been my normal since I was born. My whole life I have been faced with challenges and have had to constantly adapt to them. I don't know anything different. This does not slow me down and I continue to go through my life with a positive outlook. I have a supportive family, irreplaceable friends and my amazing other half, Jason. Between them and my determined personality I am ready to take on anything that comes my way.
