Dobie, when I read the headline "Been In Hospital" my heartrate went up too!!! You must have been scared out of your mind girl. You're taking it easy right now right? Are you working? Can you take time off...do you need to?

I didn't think you were overweight. The pictures I've seen of you were lovely and trim. Please keep us updated...I knew you were not here much, but we've all been kind of scarce lately.

I'll keep you in my prayers Dobie for a quick recovery.

I'm so sorry to hear that you've been in the hospital and had heart issues. That's nothing to play around with - please do exactly what the docs tell you to do. It is extremely important to keep your blood pressure down. Do you have an automatic cuff to take it at home? If not, send hubby to Walgreens/CVS or Walmart, etc. to buy an automatic one that you just wrap around your arm and push a button and your pulse and blood pressure will automatically read out. It would be good to take it a couple times a day to see how it is running.

Take care of yourself!!!!! Please let us know how you are doing.

Oh, Dobie, so sorry you are going through this!!! I'd heard tha infections could go to your heart and be very serious, didn't know a stomach virus could do that, too. So hope you make a complete recovery very, very soon. Gayle has some good advice about taking your blood pressure. You can't be too careful, and we've learned you have to take care of yourself. The doctors are only there to help.

Just to let you know since you've been gone. I'm doing Weight Watchers and it's working for me so far. If you decide to join, we could encourage each other. Just a thought.... Take care of yourself!!!

Dobie, I'm so sorry to hear that you've been in the hospital. It sounds very serious so make sure to take care of yourself and follow doctor's orders. I had noticed that you hadn't been on lately but thought that you were just busy. Take care of yourself!!!! Keep us posted on how things are going.
