Mike did well today. His temperature is staying normal, which is a huge blessing, and his appetite was good today as well. He had a few dizzy spells, but they weren't as big of a problem as they were yesterday, mainly because he didn't leave the house.
We waited all day to hear from the cardiologist, but never did. It has been so frustrating at times dealing with doctors, especially those from MD Anderson. I know they are some of the best doctors in the world, but they haven't been very good at responding to our needs, or questions.
Mike and I are just praying that his low blood pressure, won't be a problem for the surgery next week. We have tried to explain to the cardiologist our concerns in an email, but either he doesn't think it's an issue, or he's out of pocket, and no telling when we'll be advised what to do. It may be something as simple as giving him saline solution before surgery. They did this the last time we were at MD Anderson, when he was having tests done on his heart and his blood pressure was low. But it certainly would be helpful to know this days before the scheduled surgery, if this was anything to be concerned about.
Please continue to pray everything will work out for Mike to have this surgery done.
