Kami has seen a general doctor here on the island who examined Kami, ordered blood work, and then sent Kami to an Osteopath doctor on Friday. The Osteopath checked Kami out extensively and ruled out any muscular problems. So basically, we at least know that her problem isn't muscular.
After praying and asking the Lord to provide someone to help us, I received an email from a very special lady in Florida. She is an ER doctor and what a blessing she has been. Mrs. Debbie has been helping us to develop a plan and has been giving us a direction to work towards in finding the cause of Kami's chest pressure/shortness of breath.
We have completed two new blood tests that ruled out blood clots and heart attack...so we praise the Lord for that as well. Then we took Kami to the ER on Sunday evening. She was getting worse, was having difficulty breathing, and just looked pale. The ER doctor did an ECG and an ultrasound of Kami's lungs, chest, and arteries and all came back fine. He told us that the problem is not life-threatening at this moment and that took a load off of our minds and hearts.
This morning, we are taking Kami to the Hospital for X-Rays to rule out a separated lung and to look for any other possible problems. We will also look to schedule an appointment with the cardiologist that comes to St. Barths twice per month.
We will keep you informed as to what the results are...Thank you for praying!
Until next time...
