Things are looking up, although I will be here in the hospital for a while longer! Since I had been noticing an exercise-induced shortness of breath for a couple of years now, I suspect that it took a while to get me in this state, so I'll be patient in getting better as well. I do have a window in the room; it overlooks the parking lot for the KSU football/basketball complex, so the bird diversity is minimal... (Those are avian birds, Amadan). I'll keep you updated as the case warrants. I think I dodged a bullet, based on the CT scans and the rest of the symptoms, so it's good to be on the mend. good news. Get better. -------------- Who said that ev'ry wish would be heard and answered When wished on the morning star Somebody thought of that, and someone believed it Look what it's done so far The Daily Wingnut

I've heard that homeopathic doses of echinacea and tea tree oil are very effective for your condition. Also, considering the principle of treating like with like, take some coagulated blood, dilute to 30C with proper succussing at each stage, pour it onto a sheet of blotting paper and fax it to yourself on an organic fax. Eat the recieved fax as a series of little pieces over the next lunar cycle. Converting to a major world religion is also recommended. I'm sending FTK to your bedside with some Chick tracts and a copy of everything Denyse O'Leary has ever written... ...oh alright, the above is obvious bollocks. Get well soon Dave. I hope you and yours are coping and your recovery is going to plan. Double P.E.? You must be a tough old bird! Maximum one nurse per day until fully recovered. Until then here is a soothing picture of a Dartford Warbler. Enjoy! And again, get well soon! Louis P.S. J-Dog, I blame myself. The guilt is awesome. {relurk} ADDED IN EDIT: Ok that was a coincidence. I in no way planned THAT! lol Speculation will now run wild.

But if Casey really is praying for me, I suspect I'm a goner. Louis - Beautiful pic, and thanks for the suggested therapy. Is this something you learned in your discussions with the French? Ftk - Thanks for the prayers and thoughts. I did get your message at my KSU address, but, as you suspected, I had too many messages and not enough time or energy to answer them all. JJS - I keep telling you that engineers need to learn biology before they discuss it! Thankfully my diet won't change, since my blood lipids are good and my coronary arteries are now proven to be clean with that angiogram. The clots come from my legs, and may be caused by a hereditary clotting factor problem. The hematologist here has ordered a bunch of blood work, but the results won't be back for a week or so, since they have to send the samples off to the Mayo Clinic. Not many labs can do those specific tests, apparently. TTeach - No thanks, we've got plenty of annoying creationists here; practically a bumper crop! casey is one of the few who is capable of fucking up a prayer.  can't get through it without lying.  your humor hast maintained, thou shalt heal!  but stay away from FTK. -------------- You're obviously illiterate as hell.�Peach, bro.-FtK Finding something hard to believe based on the evidence, is science.-JoeG the odds of getting some loathsome taint are low-- Gordon E Mullings Manjack Heights Montserrat I work on molecular systems with pathway charts and such.-Giggles

Is this something you learned in your discussions with the French? I do remember a discussion with the ghost of Jaques Benveniste last week... I am very glad to learn that things are progressing in the right direction. The Mayo Clinic? Honestly don't you Americans think about anything but food?* Louis * I know, I know. I had to put at least one bad pun in for old times sake. P.S. TexasTeach: I wanted to make a special 5000th post chock full of exciting chemistry, but Dave deciding to dice with death dragged me from the dungeon of self imposed silence. It will now have to be a 5XXXth post chock full of chemistry. But then irrationally clinging to some specific number as if it had significance is silly. Teach me to be all OCD about it. P.P.S. Afarensis, you should also get better dammit. Too many fine folk getting sick around here. Stop it immediately! I am totally recovered now, but thanks. -------------- Church burning ebola boy FTK: I Didn't answer your questions because it beats the hell out of me.

Albatrossity2 Posts: 2780 Joined: Mar. 2007 (Permalink) Posted: Jan. 23 2010,12:10    I thought I should give you all a short update, and thank you once again for the good wishes and concern. I've been out of the hospital now for 8 days (which is as long as my hospital stay), and starting to feel like my old self again. The emboli are clearing out (my oxygen saturation levels are back to 98%), and the atrial flutter problems induced by the back pressure on the right side of my heart seems to be gone as well. I have more energy than I have had in several months, and the doctors assure me that this improvement will slowly continue until I am as obnoxious as I used to be. In a couple months they will take out the filter in my inferior vena cava, and daily doses of an anti-coagulant should keep me clot-free for the rest of my life. Thanks again for everything, including Louis's 5000th post, and I'll be back to full CBEB activities very soon. -------------- Flesh of the sky, child of the sky, the mind Has been obligated from the beginning To create an ordered universe As the only possible proof of its own inheritance. � � � � � � � � � � � � - Pattiann Rogers
