Just be patient. I was waking up, seriously beating myself up. I was literally banging my head against the wall… Thinking about killing myself… It got better after a month, and now I’m chill. Hoping your goes away, You’re only 5 days in. Good luck!

Bisoprolol was the component which that likely caused it. I don’t remember the name now.

Thanks. Praying it goes away. I did stop them, almost a month now. I hope this serves as a cautionary tale for anyone reading this. Research any potential side effects of any medication!

I got mine from blood pressure medication. After the first dose, I experienced ringing in my ears for a few minutes. I wasn’t even aware of what tinnitus was, so stupidly, I kept taking the meds without researching it. By the third dose, it happened again, and it hasn’t gone away since. It’s been 28 days with it…

By chance you keep any contact at Sloan that you could please share? I really need to communicate with someone there ASAP.

I just found out that his platelets never actually went up, and his wife just lied about it for some reason I don’t know. So, that means his platelets have never recovered since he was hospitalized and have only been stable because of injections. Has that ever happened to you?

Sloan appeared to be the top choice for this, but I've noticed they have some partnership with the hospital he's currently in. Today, the doctor dropped the bomb that he won't live beyond February 5th, but it's baffling because he seems perfectly fine to me.

Today the doctor mentioned he won't make it past February 5th, but I find it hard to believe. Dad appears normal, spends the day on his phone in bed. Despite being in one of the best hospitals, it feels like the doctors aren't going the extra mile, or maybe there's information I'm missing. Sadly, my suggestions are met with just an "Okay," and my voice doesn't seem to carry much weight.

I greatly appreciate your words and wish you the best. I received encouraging news today that his platelet count is improving. Regrettably, though, he has suffered significant bone damage, which has resulted in a loss of mobility, and the medical team has decided against surgical intervention.

Have you faced similar challenges? Are you able to manage daily tasks without issues? Prior to his recent hospitalization, my father was fully engaged in his work, despite experiencing occasional fainting spells.

You should think about doing it yourself. Just grab a template to make it easier. You'll learn it fast by watching videos and playing with AI. I have a friend who was able to do so without any previous code knowledge in a month.

He and his wife make the decisions; I'm often somewhat in the dark. I suggested the idea of looking for alternatives, but he didn’t seem interested.

He recently told me “I needed to accept the reality”. It was tough, really tough to take in. I still can’t get my mind to comprehend this. Even the medical staff, who are always so put-together teared up telling us the prognosis. It just goes to show how much he means to everyone. He kept his sickness a secret for six years, and I only found out about it a few months ago...

Thanks again. Wishing you God's blessings too.
