Am off to see my primary care doctor at Roosevelt in Manhattan at 6pm; I have been doing at least a couple last visits per specialist, etc. before my tentative planned move to Fla.

Today I see my HIV specialist--- w/ an undetectable virus load & after seeing my liver specialist last week general good liver labs except for my bilarubin. He took me off of supplements to see if they may have driven up my liver bilarubin.

Today is routine w/ a discussion at my request of whether I should take an additional med for gout, it's new and called uloric...to lower uric acid that can inflame gout....my only problem is that it can cause liver problems in about 6% of the patients; might I hold off & use it only if my gout worsens..& moving to Fla. actually should help my knees.

Tomorrow I have a 1st time appt. w/ an endocrinoligist as I have had some bone loss in my right arm & left leg, likely due to meds...& we will explore whether we should give me a yearly I.V. or some kind of med to reverse the bone loss (if anyone has experience w/ this please send me a pm).

Appreciate your prayers as I stay focused on a move soon to Pensacola after closing out some NYC business.

RICK/Ps. 118:17


Thank you for those prayers...today started out on a bad note as there was a mix-up at St. Luke's re: my seeing an endocrinologist; & the appt. was moved to March 1st..this after a great mtg. w/ my primary yesterday where she seems to be in agreement w/ the once a year infusion.

Not knowing me that could of meant that I may have also had to delay my move another month while a decision was made & likely a future appt. w/ the infusion center.

I made some calls to people I know both at St. Luke's uptown & Roosevelt Hospital downtown (where I receive most of my care).

While on the phone w/ the primary care who I may use in Pensacola--- a St. Luke's super. called & I called her back after my Fla. call & she talked & transferred me to a downtown Sup. & praise God we were able to make an endocrine appt. for Wed. afternoon downtown.

That means that the specialist can have the extra added advantage of walking a few yards to his left, & he can consult w/ my primary, or a few yards to his left & he can consult w/ my liver specialist (only there every other week) or they could all just gather---- & make a quickened decision.

This worked out to it's maximum best, rescued from a bad start to the day.

I'm looking to open & close this book God willing at the same time w/ this newest development.

Additionally, yesterday my primary went over other areas of my tests, etc. & all is as good as can be expected.

Remember they thought in 1993, that the then atheist may pass away in 6 months.

I'm still here,

Rick/ Ps. 118:17

~~~Mon. I had an endonoscopy by my regular liver specialist...as some may know for outpatient procedures you often need an escort....as they use meds to alleviate pain..help tolerate the scan, etc. My escort was from Manhattan Grace Tabernacle, one of the Brooklyn Tabernacle sister churches where a former staff of mine pastored before moving on to his own church. When we left half way up the block I felt light headed & Tony my escort had to prop me up, & get me over to the church to eat, relax & make contact w/ my dr....when all was well I left..but last night,I felt light headed again, and fell in a local store...after a few seconds I was ok again, & today went to see my primary in the city...she examined me-believes because my liver is scarred that it may not process meds quickly @ times, & so the side-effects, she also ran labs, & scheduled me for a brain scan & an EKG, just to be safe. My best friend who has blood cancer, & liver disease is also hospitalized, & I'm going to try & get out to see him too, asap. Will keep you posted.~~~

PS- Will see the bone specialist next week to see if he might prescribe a med for bone loss.

My recent labs were basically ok-could use more t-cells to boost my immune system

Thanks for the prayers.

I met w/ my dr. on Friday the heart test was abnormal, but she was not concerned, as a precaution she is referring me to a cardiologist. My brain scan was normal; and my labs showed most areas good or improved, although I could use more t-cells (disease fighters).

Both her and my liver specialist believe that because I have a damaged liver that everything doesn't clear as it might w/ normal liver function..therefore the meds that they give you so that you can tolerate the endonoscopy through the throat to examine your g.i. system...might have stayed in my system longer. Hence, the dizziness.

Since Tuesday there's been no further problems...and my next big meeting is Wed. w/ the endocronologist to see if he will put me on a medication for some bone loss, a yearly infusion or daily oral meds...however again it depends on whether my liver can tolerate such.

Ricardo/ Ps. 118:17

Thanks for those prayers..on my way to see the specialist in Manhattan to see if after he did more tests, that we have not reviewed--- as to whether or not I can be on a yearly infusion or daily oral meds for bone loss.

Just to update: the bone specialist has done more tests to see why/if my body doesn't absorb calcium correctly, so there is no decision on meds.
Yesterday I met w/ my liver specialist he wrote a note to the bone specialist that I should not take certain oral meds for bone loss, as that recent endonoscopy showed an enlargement of veins in my liver & the bone loss meds that we were considering could worsen that condition. That could lead in time to veins bursting--that could lead to an early demise (God forbid--please).
My liver specialist also has scheduled me for a stress test, as an outcome of the ekg, so that when I see the cardiologist we'll have more up-to-date records, & he scheduled an mri to look again at the vein situation in my liver.
The good thing vs. just shooting off to Pensacola is that the drs. all talk to each other; there's past tests to compare what may be going on good or bad & whether I visit them uptown or downtown they all have access to my records on their computer screens.
So, my moving to Fla. is again delayed and yes I could & will travel w/ all of my records but it's best right now to deal w/ drs. who know me..than pick up on drs. in Fla. that would have to get to know me.
So now my plans are to speed up these tests, & to get or not get the bone loss meds; & to have an eye kept on the vein situation in my liver.
Please pray for wisdom for my drs., good test results, if it's not going to make a situation worse to get a bone med & for veins in my liver (I am taking Nadolol 100mg. for that) would not worsen & for my liver to function well.
I am going to get anointed w/ oil soon & attend a special healing service, something that I haven't done in a few months.

Rick/ Ps. 118:17

Just by way of update, last week the bone specialist decided after numerous tests that it's ok to give me meds, a piece of paperwork was lost in channels-so he has to stall until he speaks w/ my liver specialist to discuss the yearly infusion vs. daily meds. I'll see my liver specialist Wed.
Due to the fainting I had a brain CT scan & a stress test for my heart. My brain & heart are generally ok, but the stress test showed increased pressure on my lungs..this could be due to my liver condition.
Today I saw a Pulmonary Specialist, & he concurs w/ my PCP & liver specialist that it's likely due to my liver...there are meds but my liver sit rules out a few & a catherer*** for my heart must be done before a decision is made.
All drs. are aware that if I decide to move to Pensacola, that treatment could be decided down in Fla., but for now I'll slow it down & hang out as long as I can in NYC.
So to recap: bone loss meds pending after drs. consult; cause of lung pressure not conclusive w/ out a test-- and more drs. consultation.
I also drew blood today at a separate location; and am praying that when I meet w/ my liver dr....that results will show nothing but good levels.
Note: I do seem out of breath more quickly when buzzing around Brooklyn & Manhattan.
Thanks for the prayers.
Ricardo/ Ps. 118:17


***Right heart catheterization—diagnostic gold standard2

The "right heart cath" is considered the only way to make pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) a definitive diagnosis. The test allows your physician to see the inside of the chambers in the right side of your heart and to directly measure pressures in the pulmonary arteries.
