Diabetes is a bitch.

I don't usually talk about myself too much here, and I'm too argumentative to have many buddies on here...I don't know really why I even felt like sharing this info.

But here I go...Any well wishes will be appreciated, though I don't expect to many... :-)

did it get your fingers and arms too? Best Wishes Mikey

So much for the good news.

The transplant Doc at the Mayo Clinic gives me a 50-50 chance of living more than two years without a new heart.

All parts attached is great news. Now, are you on a list for heart transplant ?

I know a guy here that must be in his 80's that had a transplant 20 years ago.

He has to take antirejection meds but he's a mechanic and still gets greasy every day.

You'll beat this. Two years is a long, long time.

my evaluation for a transplant begins in about a week when they receive the results of the last round of tests for amyloidosis.
