I just saw this thread and I too will be praying for you, sister Tina.

I went through a heart ailment (and still am) the last couple of years. One doctor who had never seen me in person said that from my x-rays alone he concluded that I was dying from congestive heart failure. My own doctor received that report, looked at me and said, "Nah..." I didn't have any symptoms like the fluid and swelling - just the huge arteries and pericardium that showed up on the x-rays.

There's a lot of complicated stuff that can accumulate leading to an alarming diagnosis. For me it was a persistant pneumonia infection that had inhibited heart function for many years. No one had tied the two things together and it nearly killed me. Now, with some good information in hand, I'm on the mend. Long story short- even the bad news itsn't often all that bad. We serve a great God who can help us to sort things out. God bless!
