Good wishes....you must be so nervous xxxxx

(you are misdee, aren't you?)

VeniVidiVickiQV · 11/12/2006 20:37

I'm sure it will be fine. Can I say "I told you so" when you come back tomorrow?

FairyTaleOfNewYork · 11/12/2006 20:38

i am misdee yes.

i have been putting this off for years, bad i know. they ust need an echo and ecg to check for any possible signs of DCM, chances are they are completely clear.

I know how you feel...dreading the worst. Before dd's hospital appointments I used to feel sick with nerves, then afterwards I'd wonder what I was so worried about.

I'm sure it will be good news - do you get the results there and then?

beansprout · 11/12/2006 20:52

Best wishes for tomorrow misdee

handlemecarefully · 11/12/2006 20:53

Definitely good wishes and positive vibes fairytale...and I'll send them all over again tomorrow morning.

FairyTaleOfNewYork · 11/12/2006 20:56

no idea what will be done tomorrow, no doubt will be going over dh history again, they may not go any further with it. but i want soem tests done. echos are usually given results there and then, dd2 had one done when she was 18months due to a murmur. dd3 had fetal cardiac scans, so my consultant during pregnancy thought it was worth investigating. feel sick thinking about it.

Is this the test you have been asking for for a long time? if so, I'm glad to see they finally agreed to test them and hope that tomorrow you could get that worry out of your mind.

Best of luck for tomorrow.

But in a way Fairytale it might be better to know?

Chandra · 11/12/2006 21:03

Hopefully things will be perfectly OK, and one less thing to worry about.

Sending you lots of virtual support for tomorrow

FairyTaleOfNewYork · 11/12/2006 21:07

it will be better to know, with early intervention, if the slin chance they do have DCM, prognosis is a lot better now than even when dh was dx.

Misdee - I know I've wished you luck once already but two wishes is even better. Will be thinking of you.

FairyTaleOfNewYork · 11/12/2006 21:17

i can tell you about echos now, they are quite fascinating really. its a scan of the heart, they will check for leakages, measure the heartm check flows (in red and blue this [part) and all the rest.

Carmenere · 11/12/2006 21:18

They will be fine and you are doing the best thing for them, lots of good vibes coming to Chez Misdee from Casa Carmenere

JingEllBells · 11/12/2006 21:20

Oh blimey misdee... I can see why you want it done, but also why you don't want to think about it. I will be thinking about you and your girls tomorrow. Hope all goes well.
