Go seek Medicaid....: CHF is a serious condition that may qualify you for disability. Go to your S.S. Office and apply for medicaid/disability. Have your discharge paperwork with you. Your hospital probably already did so (in order to get paid), so their social worker already started the paperwork. Stay on generic BP meds and watch your salt intake. You will need a sharp family doctor who knows the system well.
