or are we doomed to life with LVAD with us till dh dies?
just feel a bit off today. one call in a year basically hasnt done much for our hopes. we have no hope atm.
Also feel cr*p as was speaking to another patient today and he is hoping to be ex-planted (also LVAd, aiming for recovery), imo, he has been too long now with the vad to hope for successful recovery. but i am not a doctor.but have seen many many patients go onto the list after initially being told they would be explanted, one die after explanted, and went go into heart failure and being put on the emergency list for a heart.
just rambling, feeling like poo.
