Yes, of course!

I am so stressed because the information about my procedure went out from Rici to early. There is so much chaoss in all 5 Forums (2 Slovak, 1 Czech, 1 German and this).
I wanted to do it step by step. Now I have to reply my 200 e-mails, many, many, PMs. One patient came to visit me which was OK. I have headache from the stress, my muscles started to hurt a lot, because I sit in front of the PC whole day.
There is no way I can have a rest. I had my lunch at 6 pm.
I do not have time to do the reports. He was excited but I am so stressed now.
I hope to get out of this within a week.

I already know how to inject Heparin. I was using wrong method at the beginning.

My parents speak slovak and I was wondering if you could post a link to the slovak forums here, or private message me the link if you prefer. I'd like to send it to them so that they can participate in the discussions.

Thanks!

Ahoj,
it is very good idea. I had time today to post good quality reports about my 3 days in hospital in Slovak here: http://www.sclerosis-multiplex.sk/forum ... ategory=i5,

Erika,

Rest and heal. We are not going away and will wait for you no matter how long it takes for you to be strong enough to tell your story.

I couldn't type much the first weeks or so, it is good to rest.

Maybe you could write out somethings on your computer then copy/paste the same information so you do not have to type it to each person that you feel has to be responded to?

note-sorry about the signature line the code gremlins are apparently on TIMS today I can't fix it correctly....but they do click

The problem is also I must use three languages: English, German and Slovak.
Especially Slovak people have so much chaos. They can not read in English or in German, so they are often confused and often completely wrong.
Well, I hope, it will be everyday better.

Correction of my information.
Dr. Kazibudzki is actually vascular surgeon. And there was also Dr. Świerad who is interventional cardiologist, and his assistance was very important since he has experience in intravenous endovascular procedures in the area next to heart.

I posted wrong information before. As this is very important for all of us, I want to give you exact information.
I apologize.

After one week.

I feel the same as the first day.
- my fatigue is at least 85% better
- I do not have to push my belly to be able to empty my bladder anymore, I think it is 90% better
- my brain fog is about 15% better

I do not have any problems with Clexane(Heparin) - just some bruises of course.
My headache is better. I had stronger headache 3-4 days after procedure. As I have had it even worse for the last 10 years, it was normal situation for me. The headache is/was especially on the left side.
I am sweating more since the first day, not extremely but for sure more. I am not sure about the heat intolerance. I am still little bit under stress - so I do not know if it is the stress or heat. It is about 9 C/50 F in my country.

The wound from the catheter is healing really good - only light bruise. Actually the wound is closed - it is completely OK.
