of my cardiologist's office!

Sorry it's been a while since I've posted. I think about everyone here on the site often, but seem to have trouble finding the time to sit down and post. So, I've stayed up late tonight, waiting for the dust to settle so I could share my good news!

Last week I went to my cardiologist's office for my echo and Dr. appt. (It's been six months since my post-PPCM baby was born) My EF was 55, my HR 70, and I'm still not on any meds, so my cardiologiss told me that she doesn't need to see me anymore! Can you believe it?! I'm so exciteed! I feel like I've graduated.

I can't thank all you girls enough for being such wonderful, supportive, and understanding friends. I know that having a place to go where I could share my fears, hopes, failures, and successes made all the difference in my recovery.

I know it sounds like I'm leaving you. I'm not, I just wanted to take a minute to say 'thanks' and 'I couldn't have done it without you.'

Erin,
That's great news! Congratulations! I can't imagine being cut loose from my cardiologist! Though it would be exciting, I think it would terrify me! I'm glad that you are holding steady off meds!
