Well, thankfully I got it all wrong.
My heart is actually better than the last echocardiograph. So my appointment yesterday afternoon was pretty much all good news!
Apparently, my heart has come along from really bad where I could have dropped over dead any old time, (19% effectiveness), to just a bit dodgy and the risk of "falling off my perch" is moderate (35% effectiveness). Now while that's still not great it's a hell of a lot better than we were expecting to hear.
He went on to say that by increasing the dose of the heart drug he is giving me there is a real possibility he could get my heart even better say up to 50% and then we can go forward with the trial again. Remember, B-raf?? We had completely given up on that one too.
Anyway, I just wanted to give you the good news so you weren't left worrying any longer than need be.
Take care,
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER GIVE UP
