Continuing onward....

From what I have been able to piece together I am possibly part of 1 or less percentage of the population. Well let me narrow that down a bit and say of the population of people whom have had a stroke with signs of a PFO (grade 3) in a test, yet have nothing show up when the pictures of my heart were taken through the esophagus. Yep I am a fluke.

But lets see that 1 percent or less has a PFO that is not standard. Most of these PFO have a flap that covers them and it is usually on the left side of the heat which is why under the right pressures it opens. Now that is 99% of the people in my situation. Now the other 1% have the flap on the right side. Thus held close pretty much all the dang time by pressure except for when the planets align, an asteroid is streaking by the earth, the beings in Jupiters clouds and drinking a vanilla frosty from Wendys all at the same time then the flap opens and a little clor gets through. Causes a stroke. Or in the impossible likeliness that this happens twice in one month (me) there are 2 strokes.

But the darn hole has hidden itself from the eyes in my esophagus and my cardiologist. There is an invasive test where we go into the heart with a mini camera from the veins and run the tests of micro bubbles while closely examining the walls. I just don't know at this point. I think my cardiologist is at the same point.

So I have a meeting with him on the 6th of July, it is confirmed that there is no surgery this Friday to fix what is potentially there but cannot be found and I have to once again find answers and questions, or is that questions and answers.

At this point all I can do is keep on doing what I am doing.

See ya!
