For those who have heard from me today, here is what is going on, Lee has been admitted to the hospital( QE2) Last night he was having extreme chest pains, and when we got in in was discovered that his blood pressure was over 300. There is no way to know the exact number because the cuff doesn't read higher then 300. He was in danger of having a heart attack or a stroke......He is now down to about 150 with I.V meds. The doctors are checking out his kidney's and they believe he has symptoms of early diabetes( he has some tenderness in his liver area) There is a chance that he will get out tomorrow, but it is not for sure. If he does they will continue to treat him as an outpatient. The doctors are recommending that he goes in for a stomach stapling surgury for his health and are referring him to a specialist. I will continue to post as I hear more( yes from the hospital)
Love Jen
