After a long worrisome 6 months it comes to find out that Mark does not have pulmonary hypertension!!!!! YEAHHHHHHHH!! I am so thankful. Yesterday we got to the hospital around 6;15am. They took him back at 7am to prep and then into the procedure around 7:30am. They said the heart cath would take about an hour. Well after 40 minutes the nurse comes to get me to say they were done. I went back to see Mark and he was awake the whole time. He looked at me and said "the doc says I don't have it!!" I just looked at him and cried. I have been praying so hard. The doctor came out and said he has a perfect heart and that all the pressures in there register exactly what they should. I was so grateful. He had to stay about 4 hours in reocvery because they go in throught the groin and he had to lay flat for that long. He is doing fine today just a little sore. I can't begin to tell you how happy I am. I almost passed out from the relief. My legs turned to jelly. He does still have shortenss of breath so we still need to rule out anxiety and possible food allergies, but thank God his heart is ok!! THank you all for your thoughts and prayers. I really do appreciate it from the bottom of my heart.

Another good report is that I saw the baby on Thursday and it looks good. I am about 10 weeks and the baby was moving like crazy on the ultrasound. I do have some sugar in my urine and will have to go for a 1 hour glucose test next week, but the doc said it could just be a fluke. But everything is looking good. We will tell our family tommorrow on Mother's day. Thanks again everyone. I am so thankful to have support from my IBS family as well as my regular family. Hope all you mom's have a great Mother's day!
