Here I go again.

Greetings, haven't been on this site for a very long time which I guess means life has been good. I recently returned from a wonderful holiday in Mexico, however while i was there I was diagnosed with systolic heart failure and am currently waiting to see a cardiologist in Vancouver. I can't get in until the 2nd of June so it is going to be a very long wait. My pacemaker seems to be fine although I am pacing on the bottom a whole lot more than I was my last check up. I'm so scared again knowing that there is something going on with my heart again. I had complete trust in my body and now that has been taken away from me. I just need some words of encouragment from my heart friends. Does anyone else have heart failure? There is some talk of a valve relplacement but I don't know for sure. I'm just so darned scared again, any ache or pain and I'm at a level 8 for anxiety. I know I just have to keep on breathing and hope that I get to the Dr. soon. Thanks for listening. Jean

OK, I'm thinking if they were really worried they would have gotten you in PRONTO.
I felt that way with myself when I didn't hear any news about my stress test. LOL
I know it sounds so trite, but stay calm & try not to worry before you have seen your Dr.
{{{Jean}}} I'll be thinking about you.

Since I got my pacemaker, I don't pass out anymore! That's a blessing in itself.
