I haven’t been diagnosed with CHF, and my blood pressure is very low. However, in 2005 I had a mild stroke. BP was up to 165/90+. Now it hovers around 90/70 approx. My dad was the same way.
I think it’s because of my liver. I drink very little alcohol, and take absolutely nothing OTC, except for the diuretics, and health supplements. I was taking handfuls of tylenol based pain medications for chronic neck and back pain, and washed it down with diet coke. I finally kicked that habit. What I didn’t realize until it was too late was that tylenol products mixed with any amount of alcohol will mess you up.
That’s why I’m so interested in Anna’s liver, and why all the injections, IV meds, etc. Do you remember if anyone mentioned whether she took meds by suppository? I had a fever, and they had to give me tylenol suppositories(lol, and ice packs) to bring down my fever.
You’ve been through so much lately. How are your lungs doing by now?? Are they okay? Did you say in an early post that you had to go back into the hospital again due to air in your lungs?
I’d have to dig out the autopsy report but i believe there was only minimal liver damage. and although mentioned in news stories as having been found in the room, I didnt’ recall the supps. being inventoried or identified in the report. I’ll look thru it again tomorrow or try to find a post upthread-two i think, although I bet someone will get to it before me lol.
Sorry to hear about your stroke. As we get older ,that’s one of our biggest fears, I think. God Bless
