About Me
There have been some major changes in my life lately. Some intentional, others the unintentional result of my history. I have a new outlook on life these days and I really appreciate the important things- love, health, and faith. It hasn't been an easy road, but I'm happy that I've taken it.

High Five
Sounds like a great day ahead. You know, you have been through so much! Not a wonder to me that you have a strong focus on your mortality. I just wish it wasn't the case for someone as young as you, and such a good person. I really think in time you will loose the constant attention on death and will spend more time enjoying what you are intended to do, eperience this beaustiful place you are in today. I am hoping that you will get the answers you need from both of the Dr.s Wed. to start giving you that peace of mind and spirit. Take care and please be kind to yourself and know that you have a long and loving life ahead. As a survivor you are special.

Hey Bishop9. I'm not back to work yet but will probably go back Thanksgiving week. Still waiting for the Dr. to see about the heart stuff. Thanks for checking in. I will let you know more when I hear from the cardiologist.

Close Pulmonary Embolism
I was diagnosed with bilateral PE on May 29, 2009. Recovering alone is not easy.
Treatments
- Coumadin Working / Worked
- My INR stays relatively stable on this medication however its getting difficult to keep it in a therapeutic range.
Close Anxiety
I have a very vivid imagination. Unfortunately I use it to imagine the worst of every situation. Sometimes you just gotta sit back, relax, and not worry about the negative things that could happen in your future.
Treatments
- Breathing Exercises Working / Worked
- Deep, slow breathing is underrated. This really helps to calm me down.
- Positive Thinking Working / Worked
Open Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
Dislocated my kneecap on May 3, 2009. This likely caused a DVT in the calf of the same leg, which broke loose and caused a pulmonary embolism.
Open Depression
bishop9 hasn’t entered any details for this support group.
