Yesterday when the defib went off, Bob was in v-tach. The defib fixed it but what the hell?. The heart doctor says his valves are flapping.
Today his heart is holding steady - he is back on the scary lung damaging drug amerodarone.
But today he could not breathe. He was better by the time I left. He had another chest xray this morning; I do not know the results. He is now on diuretics; evidently the iv over hydrated him - he must have had fluid in his chest.
They ended up giving him 3 units of blood. oh and they also say he is bleeding somewhere but they cannot find where or why.
The train wreck is in motion.
The diabetes is better and he was very depressed about that. He says if he ends up a diabetic he will throw himself out the window. I pointed out that he is on the ground floor and he would probably just bruise something.
He felt a little better by the time I left but still very sick.
He does not want visitors, he has a lot going on
but call him if you can to cheer him up. 440-312-4500 ask for CCU room 11
