13 Heart attacks, 15 Stents, CHF, Cardiomyopathy, I think I am finally dying.

Posted , 4 users are following.

I have Hypercholestermia. 13 heart attacks, 15 coronary stents almost all in LAD and a few in RCF. I have stents inside of stents. Congestive heart failure, Cardiomyopathy. For the last few days, I am exhausted, I am sleeping easily 15 hours, awake for 3 or 4 hours and then it feels like I can't stay awake no matter what. I have not a headache but like a buzzing in my head, like my head is a baloon, I feel very dizzy upon standing, my feet and hands are constantly tingling last few days. I have non-stop palpitations rippling in my heart.

My cardiologist actually had written a paper on me, I was asked to be in a study for the Mayo clinic and Hershey Medical did a paper on me for inclusion to teach to students.

They all told me when I die it would be very quickly. This is strange, I know something is seriously wrong right now, but I know I'm not having a heart attack, I know what those feel like, I've had several. This is... different, but not a bad different. Just, I just have a serious feeling that I am in the beginning stages of dying. I live alone at home, I phoned my friend to check on me tomorrow and if no answer to call the medical examiner pretty much. Any uh... thoughts here? I just wanted to talk to someone. I am only 45 and have not left my house in the last 7 or 8 months. I am 5' 9" and only 155 so I am not overweight by any chance.
