Laura's Guestbook

Laura Julius  I agree. The weirder thing is I mostly look healthy but get so winded doing simple things. The fatigue can be exhausting emotionally. Thanks for the kind words! I’m hoping to have answers and a course of treatment soon, whether it’s surgery or not.

Michele Ripley  Laura: Thank you for your email reply. Hopefully you start feeling better. Cardio rehab has helped me with some of the fatigue and exhaustion but I know one-size does not fit all and your experience could be very different. I encourage you to stay health minded and follow your doctor’s orders. Also, if you post on your journal, you will probably get more responses from more heart warriors. I don’t know if you’ve had an echo cardiogram but it will provide a lot of information for your cardiologist. My surgery is next Wednesday
(8-28-19). Best wishes for your health.

Michele Ripley  Laura: I am still learning to navigate and use the tools on this site. We’ve been corresponding with each other on your guest book page. If you will post on your journal, you should get more responses from additional people. Wish you the best in all things.

Laura Julius  Michele, I don't know if you see my response here or on your own page, so I'll do both. I'm learning my way around the site. I will be thinking of you next week. I'm scheduled for a TEE on the same day as your procedure. I am still in the maybe-valve-surgery stage. I've been here before and weirdly I'm rather calm about it this second time around. Best wishes to you! I look forward to reading about your journey and encouraging you along the way as I can. I'm certainly glad for this community.
