As many of you know, I have been hospitalized again. I felt really well for two days and it took a sudden turn on Wednesday. I have been unable to hold anything down since Wednesday and cannot stand without fainting. Today I stood for 15 seconds and my heart rate shot up from 50s to 125 and then passed out. Even so, I know we have a big God and He is going to carry us through. I dont know why this is happening, but God is here and I will put my trust in Him. Because of this recent turn of events, Rich and I have made the difficult decision that we will not be going to Wyoming this Summer and our doctor is now in agreement as well. Aiming for next year! We are now also looking into the possibility of seeking more answers at another place such as Vanderbilt or Mayo Clinic and doing a lot of research. Our doctor agrees that we need to find a group who will see me as an inpatient. My doctors have done a wonderful job and have been very honest and have reached a point where they are not sure how to help. We already know that that with POTS time, exercise, loads of fluids and increased salt intake plus medications are key. Some people its a few months, others it can be much longer. Since I am a category four, it may be longer and because of this, we want to seek more help and check every corner to make sure we are not missing anything that could help this process. So, we ask for your prayers as we walk this journey out. There are a lot of details to work out, but again, God is in control! Thank you for your love and prayers!
