SmileBe ware if you take digoxin for the heart ..


Just to make people aware of this DIGOXIN for the heart patients .

Rushed sister to the hospital yesterday, she was on that. ANd almost at deaths door......

Hoping for a better today.

THe digoxin was recalled I read online ..........The tablets contained a double dosage ........And it can cause death.

If you know anyone on that.........
www.medicinenet.com/digoxin/article.htm

Right now my nerves are raw.......She is a widow 77 an no kids.

Thank you Mandy for listening to my tears.

Update......ON sis

We just talked to the nurses station.
Sis has oxygen mask on and cant use the phone , but does talk.
Yesterday when she arrived there, the heart beat was 30 beats per min.

Today the nurse said it is up to 60 beats per min..
They said they are believing the digox. is the problem. Took her off it .
Heart beat is better.

See is supposed to slow the heart beat........Almost stopped it yesterday.
Wow................

Going down this evening....
If I save one more life , I will be greatful.
Thanks for reading my story.

OH B! What a frightening ordeal!
I am so glad that your sis is improving, will keep you both in my heart and in my prayers.
Hope you both enjoy your visit this evening, please tell her we are thinking of her,
strangers we are, I know, but it might give her a smile.

((Hugs)) to you, too.

Thanks girls....
4 of us went together, it made the load lots lighter.

I suspected it was bad when I did her house cleaning on thrusday, she was turning black and blue in the eyelids.....Whoa......I knew that as serioud.

I made her mushroom soup to eat . God I thought I had served her last meal.
She is better today at noon. Oxygen mask on and breathes heavy ..
