I've had a stress test, an ultra sound, a bubble test, and a couple of weeks ago I had a TEE test that confirmed that I have a hole in my heart. This is very unusual to be found in an adult, and has apparently been there since birth. I am ever so grateful for the Lord's protection! It hasn't caused me any major problems through all my pregnancies and life until as of late. Though I have gone to the doctor 4-5 times because of chest pain since I was 13, but it was always excused away as 'your changing', 'you're pregnant', 'you just had a baby', and so on. But now it needs fixin'. I did not handle the anestectic too well. Jeff was so sweet and tender with me, holding my hand, helping me drink, praying with me, walking me in the house, by my side all the way - I love that man!
So since this is usually taken care of as an infant I am being sent to a specialist on the 15th, of this month, a pediatric specialist. My doctor said I will be his oldest patient! There's a 90% chance that this can be fixed through a catheter, otherwise it would mean another doctor and another surgery. So we know just what to pray for!
John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
