Weight is up but weight off my shoulders is down! Went to Dr and EF # is up! I'm at 49.35%! That is a major improvement. It's the meds..yes same ones that make me super sick. It's working so they are basically telling me to " suck it up" I'm playing with time of day I take meds and types of foods that will lessen the nausea. I took a break from the social media part of FS to totally concentrate on my health and reevaluate my priorities etc. When I checked today I noticed a few comments asking how I was..Thank you Erq, Acomandr, CorvetteCowboty, HCB, Bearnoggin, and Melissa. You kindness humbles me. I'm doing ok. Hope all of you are blessed and well. Lastly, ( but certainly the most important) is that I want to say how blessed and humbled I am that God chose to help me through this. Our God is truly an awesome God! 💜🙏🙏🙏

Yfritz, thanks! I tried taking beta blocker at noon today. I was good till about 15 min ago... nausea back..I'll keep trying!💜💜

I hate nausea more than pain. You have to take it twice a day, no? That’s very rough. I wonder if there is a substitute. I know a few patients with reduced EF who couldn’t take beta blockers. Cardiologists can be very creative. It’s worth discussing it with them. I hope you feel better soon.

So glad to hear you're improving!!! Hopefully you'll figure out how to combat that nausea! Can you take Zofran or something?

I just read Zofran can cause heart issues if taken long term. Just wondering if there isn't something though. You've probably already tried things I imagine. Wonder if ginger might help?

Yfritz..Dr has discussed Entresto but apparently it's a fairly new drug and studies find it works well but only for a relatively short period of time. They don't like to give it to people till later...
I am suppy to take dose 2xs a day but can barely tolerate once a day. Dr wants me to go get blood work from reg Dr to make sure I don't have something else going on ..

Etten and Tai, thanks guys! 💜💜🙏🙏
Bearnoggin, I'm getting with my nutritionist to see if certain foods will help. Complex carbs do help short term. 💜💜

Melissa, Shirl, and HCB, thank you! I appreciate your support and I will continue to keep you guys informed. I have faith that I'll get through this and come out stronger. Went to gym yesterday and actually had a good workout so that's a positive sign.
