My heart has some issues already but I am surprised that it is held this long but if it will give-up I will not be so ready.
Mi corazón ya tiene algunos problemas pero me sorprende que se mantenga tanto tiempo pero si se rinde no estaré tan preparada.
I just ate a lot of fruits lately and I am worried that my heart would just suddenly conk-off or conk-out. The reason is that my body is not able to get rid of extra Potassium which can happen if I am not careful enough to limit my consumption of fruits and vegetables. The potassium can overwhelm my heart and cause it to literally stop. But I am not sure that it is a good or bad thing because for one thing if I die then I will just be put into finally resting forever but while I am still alive, then the struggle continues for keeping my self struggling just to stay alive.
Últimamente he comido mucha fruta y me preocupa que mi corazón se bloquee de repente. La razón es que mi cuerpo no es capaz de deshacerse del potasio extra, lo que puede ocurrir si no tengo cuidado de limitar mi consumo de frutas y verduras. El potasio puede saturar mi corazón y hacer que literalmente se pare. Pero no estoy seguro de que sea bueno o malo, porque si muero, me quedaré en reposo para siempre, pero mientras estoy vivo, la lucha continúa para mantenerme con vida.
Anything in excess is bad, because of my situation I can't just eat fruits and vegetables in excess and it's sad.
Cualquier cosa en exceso es mala, por mi situación no puedo simplemente comer frutas y verduras en exceso y es triste.
I know that I am limited for my consumption of vegetables and fruits because of the aforementioned reasons. But I just needed fiber in my diet because I am also using Calcium Carbonate which causes a bad form of constipation from which I am so scared and worried that could happen again because it is a very hard condition to get into. That is why if there are no fruits to be had, then I will have to ask my mother to by me a can of pineapples which is the only type of canned fruit that can be bought in the nearby stores. That is I will be using as my fiber source and it works because it makes me for being "regular" so that I will not worry about constipation anymore.
Sé que estoy limitado para mi consumo de verduras y frutas debido a las razones antes mencionadas. Pero necesitaba fibra en mi dieta porque también estoy tomando carbonato cálcico, que me provoca un estreñimiento del que estoy tan asustada y preocupada que pueda volver a ocurrir porque es una condición muy difícil de contraer. Por eso, si no hay frutas, tendré que pedirle a mi madre que me traiga una lata de piña, que es el único tipo de fruta enlatada que se puede comprar en las tiendas cercanas. Eso es lo que utilizaré como fuente de fibra y funciona porque me hace ser "regular", de modo que ya no me preocuparé por el estreñimiento.
Eating fruits and vegetables is my natural cure for having a hard time in using the toilet. But eating fruits and veggies has an effect of my heart stopping that I could regret.
Comer frutas y verduras es mi remedio natural para cuando me cuesta ir al baño. Pero comer frutas y verduras tiene un efecto de parada de mi corazón que podría lamentar.
However, the risk of a heartbeat stoppage due to high potassium levels is still always here so I have to make it sure not to overeat fruits and vegetables. But I am not eating that much anyways because fruits are expensive while in the other hand, the vegetable meals that my mother that serves to me to eat is also very little enough to not cause me to be overdosed with potassium. Half of an apple is enough for me to give me a very good result but if I am served with other fruits that I usually cannot resist of consuming, then I will still eat those rather than miss-out on having the of enjoy eating them.
Sin embargo, el riesgo de un paro cardíaco debido a los altos niveles de potasio es siempre aquí, así que tengo que asegurarme de no comer en exceso frutas y verduras. Pero no estoy comiendo tanto de todos modos porque las frutas son caras mientras que por otro lado, las comidas de verduras que mi madre que me sirve para comer es también muy poco suficiente para no causarme una sobredosis de potasio. La mitad de una manzana es suficiente para mí para darme un resultado muy bueno, pero si me sirven con otras frutas que por lo general no puedo resistir de consumir, a continuación, voy a seguir comiendo los que en lugar de miss-out en tener la de disfrutar comiendo ellos.
Just a small serving of fruits and veggies is what I just need, so I can eliminate waste products bringing it up to speed.
Sólo una pequeña ración de frutas y verduras es lo que necesito, para poder eliminar los productos de desecho poniéndolo al día.
But I had lasted this long as a dialysis patient, I had been a dialysis patient for more than two decades already with a less satisfactory quality because of the lower frequency of treatments than what I need. It just means that the toxins and other things in my blood would get to be elevated too much before gets to be washed-out from my body. Potassium is included among the nutrients that would elevate but I am lucky enough to not affected by its fatal effects because maybe I am not going overboard too much and also my heart seems to be holding well although of course I needed to take care that I would not exceed into what my heart could tolerate because otherwise it will cause my heart to literally stop which will mean death.
Pero había durado tanto como paciente de diálisis, ya llevaba más de dos décadas como paciente de diálisis con una calidad menos satisfactoria debido a la menor frecuencia de los tratamientos de lo que necesito. Esto sólo significa que las toxinas y otras cosas en mi sangre llegarían a elevarse demasiado antes de llegar a ser lavadas de mi cuerpo. El potasio se incluye entre los nutrientes que se elevarían pero tengo la suerte de no ser afectado por sus efectos fatales porque tal vez no estoy yendo por la borda demasiado y también mi corazón parece estar sosteniendo bien aunque, por supuesto, tenía que tener cuidado de que no se exceda en lo que mi corazón podía tolerar porque de lo contrario hará que mi corazón para, literalmente, lo que significará la muerte.
I thank God that I was able to reach my needed rescue before more complications happens which is is the reason that I have lasted this long although I know through time my condition will worsen.
Doy gracias a Dios por haber podido llegar al rescate que necesitaba antes de que se produjeran más complicaciones, que es la razón por la que he durado tanto, aunque sé que con el tiempo mi estado empeorará.
It is too bad that I really wanted to be on fruits and vegetable diet along with mashed potatoes to serve as my rice so that I can eat easier without so much eating protein that makes me feel toxic after eating for the reason of the by-products that it would result from protein consumption. The urea, ammonia, and nitrogen build-up is what makes me feel nauseated and sick even though I am not eating those frequently for the reason that I am only eating twice per day. I also have to take care not to elevate my creatinine levels because it is a different kind of toxin which also has the same effect of making me feel ill from which it it gets high enough has an effect of being literally crazy.
Es una lástima que realmente quería estar en la dieta de frutas y verduras junto con puré de patatas para servir como mi arroz para que pueda comer más fácil sin tanto comer proteínas que me hace sentir tóxico después de comer por la razón de los subproductos que resultaría del consumo de proteínas. La urea, el amoníaco, y la acumulación de nitrógeno es lo que me hace sentir nauseado y enfermo aunque no estoy comiendo esos frecuentemente por la razón que estoy comiendo sólo dos veces por día. También tengo que tener cuidado de no elevar mis niveles de creatinina porque es un tipo diferente de toxina que también tiene el mismo efecto de hacerme sentir enferma de la cual se eleva lo suficiente tiene un efecto de estar literalmente loca.
I still needed to consume some protein no matter what, but the undesirable after-effects of eating it is what it makes it bad.
Seguía necesitando consumir algo de proteína pasara lo que pasara, pero los efectos secundarios indeseables de comerla es lo que la hace mala.
The creatinine toxin is a very bad thing for dialysis patients because it is constantly being produced by the body especially if you consume much meat or protein. However if I would not be consuming it and I would find myself losing weight, the creatinine level will also go up if my body will begin to use my own body's muscles as a source of energy. As I have mentioned the high elevation of creatinine will make dialysis patient's minds to get temporarily crazy until their blood gets to be cleaned considerably by dialysis treatment. It is a weird feeling to experience a high elevation of creatinine because it has an effect of making me feel restless to be noticeable for other people which is why it makes me act weird and think weird, basically making me show signs of being crazy with no treatment except to get a satisfactory dialysis.
La toxina creatinina es algo muy malo para los pacientes de diálisis porque el cuerpo la produce constantemente, especialmente si se consume mucha carne o proteínas. Sin embargo si no la consumiera y me encontrara perdiendo peso, el nivel de creatinina también subirá si mi cuerpo empezará a utilizar los músculos de mi propio cuerpo como fuente de energía. Como he mencionado, el alto nivel de creatinina hará que los pacientes de diálisis se vuelvan locos temporalmente hasta que su sangre se limpie considerablemente mediante el tratamiento de diálisis. Es una sensación extraña experimentar una elevación alta de creatinina porque tiene un efecto de hacerme sentir inquieto para ser notable para otras personas por lo que me hace actuar raro y pensar raro, básicamente haciéndome mostrar signos de estar loco sin tratamiento excepto para obtener una diálisis satisfactoria.
The elevation of creatinine in so high levels would affect the brain which makes the patient crazy until dialysis brings down those serious levels.
La elevación de la creatinina en niveles tan altos afectaría al cerebro lo que vuelve loco al paciente hasta que la diálisis baja esos graves niveles.
But anyway, my heart will show signs of an impending heartbeat stoppage like the "skip beats" or being somewhat weak for that matter. It is a sign that I have to be careful and start to worry because thing might get suddenly bad for me. I had experienced it before and I thought in those instances that it could had been my last moments and indeed it is a scary situation to ever happen for the reason that you are aware that you will die which one of the most terrifying things that I do not want to ever experience. However it is always not coming to a point that my heart will stop because I will get dialyzed and the cleaning effect of the dialysis treatment will pull down the elevation of potassium which will effectively reset my risk of dying once again, it was like that in many instances already.
Pero, de todos modos, mi corazón mostrará signos de una parada inminente de los latidos, como los "latidos saltados" o estar algo débil. Es una señal de que tengo que tener cuidado y empezar a preocuparme porque las cosas pueden irme mal de repente. Lo había experimentado antes y pensé en esos casos que podrían haber sido mis últimos momentos y, de hecho, es una situación aterradora por la razón de que eres consciente de que vas a morir, que es una de las cosas más aterradoras que no quiero experimentar nunca. Sin embargo, no siempre llega el momento en que mi corazón se para porque me someto a diálisis y el efecto de limpieza del tratamiento de diálisis reduce la elevación de potasio, lo que efectivamente restablece mi riesgo de morir una vez más.
It is quite scary to feel the sensation of skip beats, because for the reason you might tell yourself, "This is it".
Da bastante miedo sentir la sensación de saltarse latidos, porque por la razón que sea te dices a ti mismo: "Ya está".
The reason that I am writing about this is because I can feel some subtle changes in my heartbeat already. It is causing me some level of alarm and panic and I am not mentally feeling good about it. But at least my next dialysis if God wills it will happen in this morning before maybe more bad and unpredictable things could happen. However I am a bit sure that my heart could last so I am not too much stressed about it because after all my heart is not yet doing the skip beats but rather being like weirdly mellow or weak for that matter. But again there is also calcification going on with my heart's valves and arteries which is another set of factors that I am really not in the clear with regards to the condition of my heart. There are many medical problems that is pulling and tearing me apart, it is just the mercy of God that preserving me and keeping me intact until my final moment from which I am not still certain when it will come.
La razón por la que escribo sobre esto es porque ya puedo sentir algunos cambios sutiles en los latidos de mi corazón. Me está causando cierto nivel de alarma y pánico y mentalmente no me siento bien al respecto. Pero al menos mi próxima diálisis, si Dios quiere, tendrá lugar esta mañana, antes de que puedan ocurrir cosas más malas e impredecibles. Sin embargo, estoy un poco seguro de que mi corazón podría durar, así que no estoy demasiado estresado por ello, porque después de todo mi corazón todavía no está haciendo el salto latidos, sino más bien ser como extrañamente suave o débil para el caso. Pero también hay calcificación en las válvulas y arterias de mi corazón, que es otro conjunto de factores que realmente no estoy claro con respecto a la condición de mi corazón. Hay muchos problemas medicos que me estan tirando y destrozando, es solo la misericordia de Dios que me preserva y me mantiene intacto hasta mi momento final del cual aun no estoy seguro cuando llegara.
I can never mend my broken heart and it will only get worse from here, but I am cherishing the added days that it had kept me alive because of the mercy of God to maybe more weeks, months. and years.
Nunca podré reparar mi corazón roto y sólo empeorará a partir de ahora, pero estoy valorando los días añadidos que me ha mantenido con vida gracias a la misericordia de Dios hasta quizá más semanas, meses. y años.
My heart is only the body part that I will not seek for a cure...
...it's treatment is highly expensive for an individual who is not much financially secured.

Kanina lang ako kumain ng maraming prutas at nag-aalala ako na baka biglang mag-conk-off o mag-conk-out ang puso ko. Ang dahilan ay hindi maalis ng aking katawan ang sobrang Potassium na maaaring mangyari kung hindi ako maingat na limitahan ang aking pagkonsumo ng mga prutas at gulay. Ang potasa ay maaaring matabunan ang aking puso at maging sanhi ito upang literal na huminto. Ngunit hindi ako sigurado kung ito ay mabuti o masama dahil sa isang bagay kung ako ay mamatay pagkatapos ay ilalagay na lang ako sa tuluyang pagpapahinga ngunit habang ako ay nabubuhay pa, pagkatapos ay patuloy ang pakikibaka para panatilihin ang aking sarili na nagpupumilit para lamang mabuhay. .
Alam kong limitado ang pagkonsumo ko ng mga gulay at prutas dahil sa mga nabanggit na dahilan. Ngunit kailangan ko lang ng fiber sa aking diyeta dahil gumagamit din ako ng Calcium Carbonate na nagiging sanhi ng isang masamang anyo ng paninigas ng dumi mula sa kung saan ako ay labis na natatakot at nag-aalala na maaaring mangyari muli dahil ito ay isang napakahirap na kondisyon na makapasok. Kaya naman kung walang mga prutas na makukuha, kailangan kong humingi sa aking ina ng isang lata ng pinya na siyang tanging uri ng de-latang prutas na mabibili sa mga kalapit na tindahan. Iyon ay gagamitin ko bilang aking mapagkukunan ng hibla at ito ay gumagana dahil ito ay gumagawa sa akin para sa pagiging "regular" upang hindi na ako mag-alala tungkol sa tibi.
Gayunpaman, ang panganib ng paghinto ng tibok ng puso dahil sa mataas na antas ng potasa ay narito pa rin kaya kailangan kong tiyakin na hindi kumain ng mga prutas at gulay nang labis. But I am not eating that much anyways because fruits are expensive while in the other hand, ang mga vegetable meals na inihahain sa akin ng nanay ko ay napakaliit din para hindi ako ma-overdose ng potassium. Ang kalahati ng isang mansanas ay sapat na para magbigay sa akin ng napakagandang resulta ngunit kung ihain sa akin ang iba pang mga prutas na kadalasang hindi ko mapigilang ubusin, kakainin ko pa rin ang mga iyon kaysa mawalan ng kasiyahan sa pagkain nito.
Ngunit tumagal ako ng ganito katagal bilang isang pasyente ng dialysis, ako ay isang pasyente ng dialysis sa loob ng higit sa dalawang dekada na may hindi gaanong kasiya-siyang kalidad dahil sa mas mababang dalas ng mga paggamot kaysa sa kailangan ko. Nangangahulugan lamang ito na ang mga lason at iba pang mga bagay sa aking dugo ay tataas nang labis bago maalis sa aking katawan. Potassium is included among the nutrients that would elevate but I am lucky enough to not affected by its fatal effects because maybe I'm not going overboard too much and also my heart seems to be holding well although of course I needed to take care that I would hindi lalampas sa kung ano ang maaaring tiisin ng aking puso dahil kung hindi ito ay magiging sanhi ng aking puso na literal na huminto na mangangahulugan ng kamatayan.
Sayang naman na gusto ko talagang kumain ng prutas at gulay kasama ng mashed patatas para magsilbing kanin ko para mas madali akong makakain nang hindi masyadong kumakain ng protina na nagpaparamdam sa akin ng lason pagkatapos kumain dahil sa mga by-products. na magreresulta ito sa pagkonsumo ng protina. Ang urea, ammonia, at nitrogen build-up ang dahilan kung bakit ako nasusuka at nasusuka kahit na hindi ako kumakain ng mga iyon nang madalas sa kadahilanang dalawang beses lang ako kumakain bawat araw. Kailangan ko ring mag-ingat na huwag tumaas ang aking mga antas ng creatinine dahil ito ay isang iba't ibang uri ng lason na mayroon ding parehong epekto ng pagpaparamdam sa akin ng sakit mula sa kung saan ito ay nakakakuha ng sapat na mataas ay may epekto ng pagiging literal na baliw.
Ang creatinine toxin ay isang napakasamang bagay para sa mga pasyente ng dialysis dahil ito ay patuloy na ginagawa ng katawan lalo na kung ikaw ay kumakain ng maraming karne o protina. Gayunpaman kung hindi ko ito ubusin at makikita ko ang aking sarili na pumapayat, ang antas ng creatinine ay tataas din kung ang aking katawan ay magsisimulang gamitin ang aking sariling mga kalamnan ng katawan bilang isang mapagkukunan ng enerhiya. Gaya ng nabanggit ko na ang mataas na elevation ng creatinine ay gagawing pansamantalang mabaliw ang isipan ng pasyente ng dialysis hanggang sa ang kanilang dugo ay lubos na malinis sa pamamagitan ng paggamot sa dialysis. Ito ay isang kakaibang pakiramdam na makaranas ng mataas na elevation ng creatinine dahil ito ay may epekto sa aking pakiramdam hindi mapakali upang maging kapansin-pansin para sa ibang mga tao kung kaya't ito ay gumagawa ako ng kakaibang pagkilos at pag-iisip ng kakaiba, karaniwang nagpapakita sa akin ng mga palatandaan ng pagiging baliw na walang paggamot maliban upang makakuha ng isang kasiya-siyang dialysis.
Ngunit gayon pa man, ang aking puso ay magpapakita ng mga senyales ng isang nalalapit na paghinto ng tibok ng puso tulad ng "skip beats" o pagiging medyo mahina para sa bagay na iyon. Ito ay isang palatandaan na kailangan kong mag-ingat at magsimulang mag-alala dahil ang bagay ay maaaring biglang sumama sa akin. Naranasan ko na ito noon at naisip ko sa mga pagkakataong iyon na maaaring ito na ang mga huling sandali ko at sa katunayan ito ay isang nakakatakot na sitwasyon na mangyayari sa kadahilanang alam mong mamamatay ka kung alin sa mga pinaka nakakatakot na bagay na ginagawa ko. ayoko nang maranasan. Gayunpaman, palaging hindi darating sa punto na titigil ang puso ko dahil mada-dialyze ako at ang epekto ng paglilinis ng paggamot sa dialysis ay hihilahin pababa ang elevation ng potassium na epektibong magre-reset sa aking panganib na mamatay muli, ito ay ganoon sa maraming pagkakataon na.
Ang dahilan kung bakit ako nagsusulat tungkol dito ay dahil nararamdaman ko na ang ilang banayad na pagbabago sa aking tibok ng puso. Nagdudulot ito sa akin ng ilang antas ng alarma at gulat at hindi maganda ang pakiramdam ko tungkol dito. Pero at least my next dialysis if God will happen in this morning bago pa siguro mangyari ang mas masama at hindi mahuhulaan. Gayunpaman, medyo sigurado ako na ang aking puso ay maaaring tumagal kaya hindi ako masyadong na-stress tungkol dito dahil pagkatapos ng lahat ng aking puso ay hindi pa gumagawa ng skip beats ngunit sa halip ay tulad ng weirdly mellow o mahina para sa bagay na iyon. Ngunit muli ay mayroon ding calcification na nangyayari sa mga balbula at arterya ng aking puso na isa pang hanay ng mga kadahilanan na talagang hindi ko malinaw tungkol sa kalagayan ng aking puso. Maraming problemang medikal ang humihila at naghihiwalay sa akin, ang awa lamang ng Diyos ang nag-iingat sa akin at nagpapanatili sa akin na buo hanggang sa aking huling sandali na hindi ko pa tiyak kung kailan ito darating.
After reading this I can see how writing about the problem actually keeps your mind off the problem and helps you deal with it at the same time and eats up those waiting hours. The heart is a particular thing. Did you ever wonder why some people are born with great tickers and others are not? My brother is a fit athlete and has competed in triathlons and bicycle races since he was a teenager. Suddenly before getting a regular colonoscopy check he is required to get his heart checked. The result is that his heart has been irregular since birth. Until he gets surgery he is ordered not be alarmed or stressed. His middle name is stress. Anyway it seems people really don't have much choice except to give thanks and find something good to do or to complain and feel sorry for themselves.
I was able to prolong the life of my heart because of my effort to reduce the root cause heart failure for dialysis patients by keeping my blood pressure in check and not being so much waterlogged which is a cause of left ventricular hypertrophy or enlargement of the left side of the heart and not eating fatty foods which I can never do anyway because of my lesser desire to eat.
However there is an ongoing process of soft tissue calcification which involves the heart valves, lungs, and calcification of my body's veins especially to and from the brain, and even my vision. That is why I cannot live "forever", there will be a time that one day my final will be exhaled.
Sorry about the way your heart feels.
You will be fine
