My wife just rushed to hospital, resting heart rate at 130, red skin, out of breath, misremembering things and stumbling. We’re both unvaxxed and under 35. I’m home watching our son, trying not to freak the fuck out! Any prayers or words of comfort are appreciated; this woman is my entire world, I’m scared shitless and don’t know what to do and have no where else to turn….I just want help. We’ve tried so hard to push through all the bullshit but now this happens—I’m so close to breaking frens, help me please.
Update: still in hospital. CTs, MRI, EKG, US all negative for any clots or embolisms. Doctors still aren’t sure what’s causing it- best working guess so far is POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) which is an excessively reduced amount of blood returning to the heart when moving from laying to sitting to standing. BP and heart rate still spiking anytime she has to get up. Pumping fluids and electrolytes and looking into starting a beta blocker until her OBGYN can assess hormone levels. Heart monitor hooked up for next cpl weeks. Home/bed rest until then. Not a whole lot of info or treatment for it so we just have to wait and see for now.
Heavenly Father, We gather together to pray for the healing of this young woman. Lift her up Lord and heal her with your loving touch. Comfort her husband and their son as you perform a miracle through the faith we hold together. Place a hedge of protection around them Lord as they fight their way through this battle of evil that we all are fighting against. Keep them of sound mind and body as they both hold the faith they need in this earthly battle. Thank you, Lord, for all you have done for them and bless you for all things given, your Will be done. We ask these things in the name of Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen.
Thank you Mary, the strength and love from frens like you has truly warmed my heart. You are appreciated.

You're welcome. I will be praying that it is something simple the doctors can figure out. Trust in the Lord and he will make her whole again, whether through his touch or the actions he sends for the doctors to provide. Thank you for the update. God bless and keep us all informed. We are all sisters and brothers on here. WWG1WGA and that is a fact.
