Testimony
My dad is undergoing dialysis for close to 2 yrs now. He had cataract surgery few weeks back. During the first dialysis after the operation, he had severe chest pain and the ECG rhythm showed heart attack sign. Dad was moved to another hospital for further diagnosis and treatment. By god's grace it was not an attack but a severe muscle contraction during dialysis. Praise god for his grace and mercy.
My dad has high BP inspite of doing dialysis regularly. 180 to 210, which is risky. In the above said hospital the nephrologist changed a BP tablet and the BP reduced to 120 next day and to 80 the day after next and pulse was 145. Usually extra water gets accumulated in the legs first, but it got accumlated in the stomach and the legs were normal. The next day my dad was having breathing problems and was unable to sleep at all. The test results showed more water in lungs and around the heart which is the reason for low BP and high pulse and not the tablet. When discussed with the cardiologist he said to my family doctor that it is risky and to drop without further treatment. But by gods grace we found favor in his eyes and the procedure to remove water around the heart went well. The water was accumulating again around the heart , and later they found it was due to swine flu infection.By gods grace now he is doing much better after treatment, able to talk with us, with a better and stable BP and pulse discharged from the hospital today.
Though there are much more testimonies from my end, I stay away not pinging in this group for any praise or prayer points. But this time I prayed Lord I will glorify your name and please do a miracle for my dad. Last week was such a painful week for us, no positive statement from any doc.But God did not forsake my family. To god be the glory.
prayer point: please hold my dad in your prayers. his hands and neck are swollen with so many IV's and needles that he could not bear even checking pressure in his hands. Also now they have asked to do dialysis three times a week. The insurance I took in august cycle reached its limit now itself. kindly pray for the finanical needs too. I still believe god could make the kidneys work with all new tissues in his kidneys. waiting eagerly for that day.
