All Clear!

After some medication changes that required me to go back in and have two more, somewhat painful, heart biopsies....I'm all clear!  It's not that I don't like seeing the old team of people who took care of me immediately post transplant, but darn it....those things hurt the more you have 'em!

You're not knocked out...they just give you a local near your carotid artery then stick a catheter in it to put the LONG (my term) grabber down to your heart.  Because I have to be special, they have to go in on my left side and through my heart valves to get to where they have to take the tissue...this makes for a more risky situation.  Fortunately, I have great docs who do their best to make it as comfortable as it can possibly be.

I'm just glad I don't have to do anymore!
