Does Anyone Else Have Heart Issues With Your Psoriasis?
I know Psoriasis did not cause a heart issue but I want to know if you had heart issues before you had Psoriasis. God Bless us ALL ππͺ& βοΈ
@A MyPsoriasisTeam Member Not that I'm anything special but God hears my prayers and you my friend are on my list π π...I don't know why we have experienced what we have but I know it has made me "spiritually" stronger, increased my faith and taught me to depend on God...I'm with you that I would rather have Quality of life over Quantity...You see our life is like a vapor, only here a little while so we have to make it count π Hardships and difficulties draw us to the 1 that matters, our Creator....We go through difficulties that make us realize our need for HIM...I have not enjoyed having CHF, Diabetes or Emphysema but it sure has made me more "humble" and caring and gave me a lot of wisdom that I didn't have before...I know I'm not invincible, I didn't do a good job of living life (my way), I made a lot of mistakes, went through a lot of pain, even contemplated suicide at 27 yrs old until I cried out to God and said please help me ! I don't know how to do life anymore and I need you π and a peace come over me...I remembered what the Bible said that He would never leave or forsake us and I realized it was me who had left and done life "my" way not "His" way....God has always been with me and He brought me back...You see health, wealth, friends, family, freedom or fun are not worth replacing God for....I would rather have that relationship than to ever have anything this world has to offer....
Now, God has allowed you to go through some things and it's been rough but you are still here for a (reason) and He does have a plan for you....Nothing stays the same way forever, you are going to make it...It's bigger than anything we can do and that's why we need HIM...Believe you me, we didn't get here by accident and our Creator is the one to surrender and place our trust with because He really is the only one who has the power to turn things around and He will in His time...I know you are tired of waiting but there is something to learn during this trial and when you come out of it you will SHINE and be able to say hey let me tell you what God did for me ππππ Never give up and i'm calling your name to our Heavenly Father and you can believe if I say it, I do it
My cookie package will definitely cheer him up. Just do not eat them in one sitting. Our conversations are so important to all of us. We all seem to have a sensitivity to others, never complaining about ourselves, of course except me. Everyone else is in such bad shape physically, but me. I am a mental case, LOL. I do not feel that I should even complain after hearing about your stories. Sorry. I appreciate each of you. Your strength to survive is far beyond my thoughts. I think that I would be willing to throw the towel in and call it quits. My dad and his mom did it. They just gave up, but at 95 and 99. Failure to thrive. Life just was not worth the effort to to put into it.
@A MyPsoriasisTeam Member, I know that your situation has been a tough one. Sometimes, people place judgement on others without even knowing their situation. I believe in having compassion for others, because kindness is much better than judgement or hatred. From the beginning, you have been up front about your situation as all of us try to do. I admire you for that, because it takes a strong person to do that, even though you may feel weak. Please know that I have always been in your corner. My brother had open heart surgery and is still in CVICU now. This is his 2nd open heart surgery. His first one was an aortic repair, (from a twisted aorta from birth). We were water skiing, it would be the last time for both of us, I dropped him on purpose because I though he had skied enough. By that Monday, he was in the emergency room with his organs shutting down. He recovered from that and then an aneurysm developed, As of yesterday, they had to repair all of his aorta, hemi arch and valve. I know how long it takes to recover from surgery, as I have had some too.
I am sending healing energy your way, never give up and I do hope that soon, that your housing situation will be resolved. It is a shame what is happening in our country and this nonsense should stop, and again, I will not get political because I do not like politics. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Please take care of yourselfπ
Good Day Ms SouthernLady, your comment seems almost like a reflection of my own struggles. My first heart valve transplant I was 38 and CHF was diagnosed then. I didn't take hers in what the doctor meant by slow recovery and went back to work way too early and did t hold back while performing my job duties like carrying heavy heater systems, climbing 2 story ladders carry 90 lbs. of roofing materials and ended up having to replace the say Valve transplant again in 2018. which happened to be when I had to fight to come back from the hardest. Being that was my second open heart valve transplant of a animal bovine heart valve, (some may ask why not a mechanical valve transplant instead for a longer lifetime advantage, it is my tricuspid valve where the blood is first introduced to and has to be a bovine tissue only) so during surgery my heart went into total heart blockage, wouldn't beat in its own, hypoxia where my lungs wouldn't inflate all the way and caused me to be on a ventilator for four days before my partner approved a emergency surgery to implant a pacer pacemaker that helps my heart beat. I woke up in recovery finally but was not myself. I couldn't remember my kids names and ages, I thought it was 1999 and Regan was still the president. I was told I would sit in my chair and rock and hum only. Three days in doing all this while being in ICU, my partner couldn't take it anymore and started searching for a second opinion bc she knew I was not right. Then in the fourth morning at 1:57am(I remember seeing the clock first) I snapped out of it and got my full memory back finally. So after being in the hospital for about 2 weeks I was released with a lot of new equipment and limitations. I have a life vest I still wear to shock my heart if needed for my chronic congestion heart failure. I use oxygen therapy , stage 3 COPD and use 4 liters 24/7. Due to the CHF I have major water weight that I use alot of water pills to regulate to this day. Which people mistake me for being obese and plain fat instead (my highest weight was 364 lbs) High blood pressure and to wrap it all up at the age of 45 then, I started a massive, full body flare up of Psoriasis that I been fighting for 5 years now until April/may of last year when went to TLC channels Dr.Lee show, i started on a third biological injection ( Tremfya) which has cleared me up 90% thankfully. I lost 64 lbs. Now the PSA has crippled me into a wheelchair and started having issues and same heart valve beginning to fail again for a third(which is normal my doctors assured me) but I won't and wouldn't make it through a third surgery for a transplant. I can't even get approved for anesthesia (my spelling sucks) for a colonoscopy due to my health conditions also) so that's when my final decision is to have quality over quantity. I'm sorry for the length of this, I just wanted to inform my situation before everyone passes and judgement.
Dan's mom died alone in a nursing home. They did not want to stay with her. It would look bad if I did, so they wouldn't let me. His family has never seen the insides of this house except his daughter. She picked a fight saying that her dad would never leave me without money. Guess what? She still owns half of my house paying nothing or helping with nothing with no life insurances either. That is pretty broke in my thoughts. I bend over backwards to help my family. No one has helped mow his lawn after a month in the hospital because it helps me too. Spiteful? Angry? Pissed off that she has not gotten all? All of the above?
