    Line is in

    Just got out of 2 days and nights in CCU, Milnirone is going. Seem to be breathing a little better. Even Drs. not sure how it works with HCM but so far no adversity other than 50/30 for BP for a while. Now in a room and will probably be fighting the SS system of our gov't as Mcare does not pay for home infusion therapy of Milnirone. Fortunately my 2ndary will. However I look at this as a challenge to beat the system. I am sure I will be transplanted before it is changed but we may have to all start lobbying our senators etc. Hope to be home in a week. If not sooner. Thanks all for the kind words and prayers.
