Hi,my name is Linda. No Dr.ever told me that I had hard failure,PH or recently early kidney disease. I found our reading my patient portal. Heart failure and PH was diagnosed in 2020..unknowingly to me and heart failure 2018. It started with SVT,then it turned into A-fib,then cardiomahley and on. I'm on diuretics, blood pressure meds.Amiodarone,Cymbalta, and others. I also been on a low sodium,low cholesterol, and low fat diet and I've incorporated The Mediterranean Diet into it. I've lost 54 lbs.so far.I've gone through 3 cardiologist and now on my 4th. Finding out I have PH I got a pulmonologist who I can't see until March. Now I need to find a nephrologist for my kidney disease. I need both hips and knees replaced and cataracts removed. I feel like I'm not getting the care I need. Do you feel that I need an advocate. I'm 71 yrs.old and live alone. I'm a widow also. I have no help. My relative live in several states. My younger brother is deceasd.. My mother also and my father is 92 living in a mall apt.in Utah.
