Test results

Test results came in via phone call on Tuesday, but I've been battling the stomach flu all week so I will be keeping this short. I've lost 7 1/2 lbs since Monday afternoon and still struggling with getting very much fluids in, leading to dizziness, high heart rate (150 bpm) and dehydration. Anyway, the test results show venous pooling, bowing of my mitral valve and an autonomic nervous system dysfunction (better than disease). I haven't had a chance to look into what exactly all of that means yet. The nurse said Dr. Fouad wants to increase my atenolol and add midodrine to the mix, not too excited about increasing or adding meds, but if it makes me better I will do it. In-laws have helped greatly with the kids, so they've spent most of the week away from the house and me--everyone else therefore seems to be avoiding the flu. Prayers appreciated that it stays that way and I get better soon. I'm all for weight loss, but not like this.
