Hi Ya'll! Well....i will have to wait to see a Pulmonologist July 31st after all. Everyone is out of the country or on vacation!! I was hoping to get to see a DR long before that date. My PCP was miffed because I had not had my colonoscopy yet.That is how I found out I may have a problem with my lungs. While going thru the screening for the procedure I mentioned to the screener abt the tachycardia I had experienced only 2 weeks earlier.They have to know things so you come out of anathesis alive and well. So I immediately spoke to the anthesiologist (hope I spelled that right!!) and he referred me to a cardiologist to see if I could get clearance for the colonoscopy. I felt fine abt it cause I want to be OK also. I have a history of SVTs. My PCP was not too concerned abt the PH seen on the Echocardiogram! He just wanted the colonoscopy results.(I had been put in the hospital for a day due to left abdominal pain that had been with me for a month or more.It was getting much worse.Catscan done with barium shake and he sends me to gastroenterologist ) All this was March 28th. Colonoscopy is being done some time Monday the 30th. Later...yakked enough,eh? Jackie [img] [img]
I used to rescue animals when in need and still will as I see the need. Which is most often than not.
