Had a heart transplant 12 1/2 years ago. (edit)


Been immunosuppresed ever since. The past few years brought about a dozen bouts of bronchitis, same number of pneumonias, one fungal pneumonia, flu + pneumonia once, severe tricuspid valve regurgitation resulting in a valve replacement, medicine-induced near-fatal bradycardia (38 bpm), two ablations, a pacemaker, intermittent lower extremity and abdominal edema, and a couple dozen other little things like two-week long colds, lumbar spodololysis with a closed fracture of the L5 (requiring about a year of 3 day/week PT), fevers for no good reason, gout, and such. And I'm not even close to the most medically battered person I know.

So you can see why my concern is elevated. And maybe why M4A with federally mandated emergency preparedness protocols seems like such a good idea right about now.


EDIT: I have a wife and two small children, both girls, 3 1/2 and 6 1/2. They're all awesome, thought the 6yo has the flu (of course). They may join me in seclusion if they can sit tight for a few days and stay well. Fingers crossed.
