Please pray for Mike. Since mid-January when we had him in ER 3 times in 4 days and in ICU over night the same week, his BP has been in the 252/124, 180/110, 230/110, 200/105 range even though he's been taking his med's on time, correctly, and not missing any doses.

I know because I give them to him, and watch him take them. He's also been in severe pain.

This is a new presentation of an old problem similar to what presented when he first became ill. We are attempting to get continuation of care arrangements made with the specialists at Banner Baywood Heart Hospital in Mesa, AZ, but it's slow going.

There is some suspicion that there are now additional coronary blockages because for a year his Bp has been in the normal range as long as he takes his meds. There is also some suspicion that there is a new blockage at the location of one of his stents.

Some prayers of protection, guidance and peace would be very nice right about now.

Praying!!!

I'll be praying, Clio!

I will pray too, Clio for your husband and your family.

Thank you everyone... This is a very difficult time... It's so similar to the initial presentations of his symptoms that started three years ago, and... well... this summer he seemed to be doing much better and I was so hopeful.

I find my prayers revolving around phrases of "Please Lord, just a little more time...." and always the thought tickles the back of my brain "even at the expense of eternity?" and of course the answer to that one is ALWAYS a resounding NO!

~Father in Heaven~ we do pray for *mike* You are able to touch him..heal him..make him renewed revived and refreshed in Your love a faithfulness.. may he rise up and praise You L-rd.

Thank you CJ.

I have peace, but I also have a deep love for my husband. I am at peace with whatever Abba decides, but I also am certain He won't mind if I ask for more time as well! So thank you very much for your prayers.

Will be praying too Clio.

Just a thought and I'm sure they've thought of this, but if his bp was normal before and now it's this high, one thing to consider is renal artery stenosis. Calcified and narrowing arteries to your kidneys "tricks" your kidneys into thinking that there is not enough blood flow to the kidneys, thus it compensates by elevating blood pressure. If he's had prior coronary stents before, this is definitely a possibility.

Hi Clio!

We're praying for Mike (and you!) over here. Tell Mike to hang tough! God bless and keep you both!
