Josie's right heart pressures were much too high. For number geeks they were 12 when ideal is 3 or about full blood pressure when they should be about 25% of full pressure. Her heart was stressing.
She is back on a diuretic to help the heart and is on a much stronger med for the pulmonary hypertension. This version uses a sub Q pump,to deliver so we have more to learn.
The O2stays as well.
Josie actually feels pretty good. Tired and sore from all the tests, but back to her cheerful self

Oh Kim, sounds like the long haul. I have myself convinced that if I can buck up and do O2 another "cough ahem cough" YEAR like Boston suggested, it may very well add decades on to her life. At least that is what I keep telling myself. So worth it. It's hard and we are walking this with you.
