saw a nurse to no day ,
blood circulation due to lower heart chamber at certain % , medical nurse explained in less than 1 min and it makes sense why my upper legs get weakened so quickly and i have to lay down for many hours to recover
anyway , relaxing , thanks
I hope you are recovering from your condition. It takes time and patience. Be sure to limit salt over everything and take all the meds the docs prescribe exactly as they prescribe. People recover from things like this and live for years. I was diagnosed with something similar in 2004 and made a full recovery. I can now walk five miles a day, and do everything with no restrictions. Just keep at it. Good to hear from you. Keep up the progress. We're rooting for you.

i mentioned to nurse and she said little salt is okay , same with sugar , in limited small amounts , ? what is small amounts

i like cycling be same as walking with using the upper leg mussel that simply requires correct % blood circulation from my lower heart chamber

well tree outside starting to blossom and summertime is nearing , so i see how far i can get , my cat Bear i think is eagerly excited to going out

i'm going to insist a full physical test next visit to clinic as clearly there been some steps missing here , a sort of sinad heart test and maybe treadmill , being sat in chair and moving body around at certain angles as I still get dizzy effects , strange pressure in my arms sort of kinder , out of phase sync electrical bio feelings ? i need a proper test , also skeptical if something else may have caused it that may have eluded ?

i think i will have days when feeling 70% or lesser , at present i feel like low 90% which i think is okay
had good nose blow earlier as sort of eluded me ask , medical heart nurse , if its possible nose , which bleeds often gets rather blocked with bloody mucus that needs be picked out as it gets stuck in the nose passages and that can cause intake of air flow to be disrupted and may , maybe cause some blood flow issues or other stability ?
my nose passage gets blocked very fast ,needs picking with special tool i made to loosen the mucus so i can pick it out in huge , and no one wonder i can't easily breath , and blow the rest out ( yes i can see some reading and feeling cringed ) how you think it makes me ? i have to do this at least 3 to 4 times each day , usually one may easily blow their nose once a day

not sure how my legs feel if i were to go for roast dinner down the road would i suddenly still get weak in the upper legs ?
thing with my lower heart chamber may start pumping correctly again at any time ?

anyway those are more questions ? i have to ask , medical heart nurse on the next visit

thanks
