About Me (In My Own Words)
I feel blessed to have this new life. I have been struggling for past many years with anemia, shortness of breath and heating cramps when I walked. I was barely able to do manage myself.
The valve biopsy showed valvulitis and aprtitis. I am recovering well, slowly and steadily. The Rheumatologist's have started me on a medicine named Actemra, it is working well.
At present I do go through blood pressure fluctuations and dizzines. Hoping that it will all go away after I stop the anti coagulant medicine Eliquis. Also, I hope to be able to stop Carvedilol.
