A Medical Adventure

“Madzimai nemadzishe, tine mutakuri anoda rubatsiro rwekurapwa; kana paine vafambi vari muchikepe vakadzidziswa zvekurapa, ndapota ridza bhatani rekufona riri pamusoro pechigaro chako." Sechiziviso ichi parwendo rwedu rweredeye kubva kuAnchorage kuenda kuDenver zvisina kujeka munzvimbo yangu yekusaziva ndakaziva kuti ndini ndaive mutyairi aida rubatsiro rwekurapa. Mushure mevhiki yezviitiko zvinoshamisa muAlaska, iyo ndege yekuenda kumba yakave yakatonyanya kunetsa.

Ini nemudzimai wangu takanga tasarudza ndege yeredeye nekuti ndiyo yega ndege yakananga kudzokera kumba uye yaizotipa rimwe zuva parwendo rwedu. Ndakanga ndarara kweinodarika awa ndipo pandakarangarira ndakagara kuti ndichinje nzvimbo. Chinhu chinotevera chandinoziva mudzimai wangu akanga achindibvunza kana ndakanga ndakanaka, achindiudza kuti ndakanga ndafenda munzira. Pandakafenda zvakare mudzimai wangu akaridzira runhare mushandi wendege, zvichiita kuti chiziviswe. Ndakapinda nekubuda mundangariro asi ndakanzwa chiziviso chacho ndikaziva kuti pane vanhu vakati wandei vakanga vakamira pamusoro pangu. Mumwe aive mushandi wemundege, mumwe aimbova chiremba weNavy, uye mumwe aive mudzidzi wehukoti aivewo nemakore eruzivo rwezvechiremba wemhuka. At least ndozvatakazoziva. Chandaiziva ndechekuti ndainzwa kunge ngirozi dzakanditarisa.

Chikwata changu chekurapa hachina kukwanisa kurova asi wachi yangu yeFitbit yaiverenga yakaderera se38 inorova paminiti. Vakandibvunza kana ndainzwa kurwadziwa muchipfuva (ndakanga ndisiri), zvandakanga ndadya kana kunwa pakupedzisira, uye mishonga yandinonwa. Isu takanga tiri kune imwe nzvimbo iri kure yeCanada panguva iyoyo saka kutsauka yaive isiri sarudzo. Kiti yekurapa yaivepo uye yakavharirwa kuna chiremba pasi uyo akakurudzira oxygen uye IV. Mudzidzi wehukoti aiziva nzira yokuisa nayo okisijeni neIV, izvo zvakandidzikamisa kutozosvikira tasvika muDenver uko vanobatsira vanobatsira varwere vaizova vakamirira.

Vashandi vendege vakakumbira vamwe vanhu vese kuti varambe vakagara kuitira kuti vabatsiri vandibatsire kuburuka mundege. Takataura mashoko mapfupi ekutenda team yangu yezvechiremba ndichibva ndakwanisa kufamba kuenda kudoor asi ndakazoperekedzwa newheelchair kusvika kugedhi kwandakasvikopihwa EKG yekukurumidza ndokupinzwa pagurney. Takaburuka neelevator ndokuenda kunze kune amburenzi yakanga yakamira yakandiendesa kuUniversity of Colorado Hospital. Imwe EKG, imwe IV, uye kuongororwa ropa, pamwe chete nokuongororwa kwakaguma nokuonekwa kuti ndakanga ndapererwa nemvura uye ndakasunungurwa kuti ndiende kumba.

Kunyange zvazvo takaonga zvikuru kuti takanga tasvika kumba, kuongororwa kwokupererwa nemvura mumuviri hakuna kugara zvakanaka. Ndakanga ndaudza vashandi vose vezvokurapa kuti ndaiva nesangweji inorungwa nokuda kwechisvusvuro manheru akanga apfuura uye ndakanga ndanwa Makombe maviri eSolo emvura nawo. Mudzimai wangu akanga afunga kuti ndave kufira mundege uye boka rangu rezvokurapa raiva mundege zvechokwadi rakafunga kuti zvakanga zvakakomba, saka pfungwa yokuti ndaingoda kunwa mvura yakawanda yaiita seyechokwadi.

Kunyange zvakadaro, ndakazorora ndokunwa zvinwiwa zvakawanda zuva iroro uye ndakanzwa ndakasununguka zuva raitevera. Ndakatevera nachiremba wangu gare gare vhiki iyoyo uye ndakaongorora zvakanaka. Zvisinei, nokuda kwokusavimba kwangu nenzvero yokupererwa nemvura mumuviri uye nhoroondo yemhuri yangu, akandiendesa kuna chiremba wemwoyo. Mazuva mashoma gare gare, chiremba wemwoyo akaita mamwe maEKGs uye echocardiogram yekushushikana izvo zvaive zvakajairika. Akataura kuti mwoyo wangu wakanga uine utano hwakanaka, asi akandibvunza kuti ndainzwa sei nezvokupfeka chiyereso chemoyo kwemazuva 30. Ndichiziva kuti pashure pezvaakasangana nazvo mudzimai wangu aizoda kuti ndive nechokwadi chose, ndakati hongu.

Mangwanani akatevera, ndakagamuchira shoko guru kubva kuna chiremba wemwoyo kuti mwoyo wangu wakanga wamira kwemasekonzi akati kuti usiku uye ndaifanira kuona chiremba wemagetsi pakarepo. Pakarongwa nguva yemasikati iwayo. Imwe EKG uye kuongororwa kwenguva pfupi kwakaguma nekuongororwa kutsva: sinus kusungwa uye vasovagal syncope. Chiremba akadaro nekuti moyo wangu wainge wakamira panguva yehope uye ndakanga ndakarara mundege, pfungwa dzangu dzakanga dzisisakwanise kuwana oxygen saka ndakafenda. Vakazoti dai vakwanisa kundiradzika pasi ndingadai ndagara zvakanaka, asi nekuti ndakaramba ndiri pachigaro changu ndakaramba ndichifenda. Mushonga wechirwere changu wakanga uri wepacemaker, asi pashure pokunge apindura mibvunzo yakati wandei akati yakanga isiri yokukurumidzira uye ndaifanira kuenda kumba kunokurukura nomudzimai wangu. Ndakabvunza kana paive nemukana moyo wangu umire ndirege kutanga futi, asi akati aiwa, ngozi chaiyo ndeyekuti ndichafenda zvakare ndichityaira kana kuti ndiri pamusoro pemasitepisi ndikakuvara ini nevamwe.

Ndakaenda kumba ndokuzvikurukura nomudzimai wangu uyo ​​nenzira inonzwisisika aifarira zvikuru pacemaker, asi ndakanga ndisina chokwadi nazvo. Pasinei nenhoroondo yemhuri yangu ndave ndiri mumhanyi kwemakore akawanda ndiine kurova kwemoyo kwakazorora kwemakumi mashanu. Ndainzwa senge ndakanga ndichiri mudiki uye neimwe nzira ndakagwinya kuti ndive nemagetsi emoyo. Kunyange chiremba wemagetsi akandidaidza kuti “murume wechidiki. Chokwadi paiva nechimwewo chikonzero. Google haina kuzova shamwari yangu sezvo ruzivo rwakawanda rwandakaunganidza, ndikawedzera kuvhiringidzika. Mudzimai wangu aindimutsa husiku kuti ave nechokwadi chekuti ndaiva ndakanaka uye pakukurudzira kwake ndakaronga maitiro epacemaker, asi kusava nechokwadi kwangu kwakaenderera mberi. Zvinhu zvishoma zvakandipa chivimbo chekuenderera mberi. Nyanzvi yemwoyo yandakanga ndaona yakanditevera ndokusimbisa kuti kumbomira kwemoyo kwakanga kuchiri kuitika. Akati aizoramba achindifonera kusvika ndawana pacemaker. Ndakadzokerawo kuna chiremba wangu, uyo akapindura mibvunzo yangu yese uye akasimbisa kuongororwa. Aiziva electrophysiologist uye akati akanga akanaka. Akataura kuti kwete chete kuti zvicharamba zvichiitika, asi zvimwe zvaizowedzera. Ndinovimba nachiremba wangu uye ndinonzwa zviri nani kuenderera mberi mushure mekutaura naye.

Saka vhiki rakatevera racho ndakava nhengo yekirabhu ye<em>pacemaker. Kuvhiyiwa uye kupora kwairwadza kupfuura zvandaitarisira, asi handina ganhuriro kumberi. Muchokwadi, iyo pacemaker yakandipa kusatya kuti nditangezve kufamba uye kumhanya nekufamba uye zvimwe zvese zvandinofarira. Uye mudzimai wangu ari kurara zviri nani.

Dai tisina kusarudza ndege yeredeye yakaita kuti ndife mundege, uye dai ndisina kuramba ndichibvunza nezvekupererwa nemvura, uye dai chiremba wangu asina kundiendesa kuna chiremba wemwoyo, uye kana chiremba wemwoyo asina kundikurudzira. pfekai chekutarisa, ipapo handaizoziva mamiriro emoyo wangu. Kudai chiremba wemwoyo nachiremba wangu nomudzimai wangu vakanga vasina kuomerera pamusoro pokundinyengetedza kuti ndipfuurire negadziriro yokusimbisa mwoyo, ndingadai ndichiri pangozi yokufenda zvakare, zvichida mumamiriro ezvinhu ane ngozi zvikuru.

Ichi chiitiko chekurapa chakandidzidzisa zvidzidzo zvakawanda. Imwe kukosha kwekuve nemutarisiri wekutanga anoziva nhoroondo yehutano hwako uye anogona kuronga kurapwa kwako nevamwe vana chiremba. Chimwe chidzidzo kukosha kwekureverera hutano hwako. Iwe unoziva muviri wako uye iwe unoita basa rakakosha kuti utaure zvauri kunzwa kune wako wekurapa. Kubvunza mibvunzo uye kujekesa ruzivo kunogona kukubatsira iwe nemupi wako wekurapa kusvika pakuongororwa kwakakodzera uye mhedzisiro yehutano. Uye ipapo iwe unofanirwa kutevedzera nekurudziro yavo kunyangwe zvisiri izvo zvauri kuda kunzwa.

Ndinotenda nekurapwa kwandakaitwa uye ndinotenda kushandira sangano rinobatsira vanhu vane mukana wekurapwa. Hauzivi nguva yaungave uri iwe unoda rubatsiro rwekurapa. Zvakanaka kuziva kuti kune varapi vakadzidziswa uye vanoda kubatsira. Sekuona kwangu, ingirozi.
