Hi Everyone,
I'm packing my bags for Cleveland tomorrow. My flight leaves Phoenix at 11:30am and arrives in Cleveland at 6:00pm.
I see Dr. Lever on April 27. The myectomy is scheduled for May 4.
What I am most nervous about is the results of the heart cath because I know there is no way of fixing how stiff my heart is and I don't think that all of these symptoms I have is just from obstruction. I don't know, I'll have to see what Dr. Lever says. Finally, I get to see someone who knows HCM.
I have curbside wheelchair assistance. And I have oxygen for the plane. It is set at 4 liters!
I think that might be too high, the most I use at home is 3.5 if I am really tired and have that sick feeling.
The people at Med-Link said that with the cabin pressure in the plane, it is equivalent to 8,000 to 10,000 feet elevation. That air is pretty thin for me.
Thank you everyone for all of your support, it has meant the world to me. I do not know how I would have gotten though so far without you
