Locked Health update


 

All,
I've been moved from Wesley's ICU to their Stroke center. I anticipate being released sometime late Sunday morning or early afternoon. Why the move to the Stroke unit? They have classified the medical issue I suffered Tuesday as a stroke vs TIA.
SEQUENCE of EVENTS
On Tuesday i began to exhibit signs of a stroke affecting my left side.
My wife immediately drove to Wesley West where they were able to administer the drug TNK within the prescribed time frame. After which my symptoms rapidly diminished and I was ultimately transported to Wesley Main. Unfortunately, the drug caused a pseudoaneurysm in my right wrist. The initial and subsequent treatment of the pseudoaneurysm caused a great deal of pain in my right arm as well as a considerable amount of stress to my already compromised mind and body. I believe that this was what caused my cardiac event, symptomatic bradycardia, early Saturday morning. In my opinion, my nervous system was essentially shutting down from overload.
My wife and I made the decision to stay an extra night because of the cardiac event. A similar decision lead to the detection of the pseudoaneurysm. The "House Doctor" disagreed but going through the events of the week he changed his mind.
Currently I'm on a heart monitor and will be evaluated Sunday by the Stroke team to set up a plan of action.
I consider myself very fortunate over the course of the last six days. The stroke could have left me with severe and permanent disabilities. As to the pseudoaneurysm and the cardiac event - either one could have been fatal by themselves.
I want to thank Patricia for her efforts to keep you informed. It was easier for me to let one person know than to shotgun the information out.
I also want to thank everyone for your thoughts and prayers. They helped me overcome a very rough period.

P.S. I can't wait to see this bill. Don't worry though, my insurance will take care of it all. Believe me.


 

So glad you are doing better Gaylen. If I read your message correctly, as I was just getting out of church, you have escaped the hospital. So happy for you.

And thus today we thank the LORD for answering our prayers and we salute our club president. Great having you back Gaylen.
