Journal entry by Mary Mueller —
Well I have been back in the hospital since Saturday afternoon. I was simply out on my deck transplanting some seedlings. I got up, my heart started racing, shortness of breath, tightness in the chest and felt very tired and weak. Called the nurse line and they said I better go to the hospital. Crap. Went to Methodist, since this is where I will be having treatment for cancer. They are awesome and so are the doctors here. After much testing, I think one doctor figured it out. He thinks I have a condition called POTS and started me on a new. Medicine. I am feeling better and hope to get out today. Unfortunately, while doing a CT scan, they found a spot on my liver. I do not know what it is. They will be doing a MRI sometime this month. And my Oncologist appt is here at Methodist on April 29. Oy! I am falling apart....but hanging in there.
