      From JENNY23 Thursday

      Well, you did change dramatically from that Halloween face before!LOL> Just kidding! Thanks for reminding me about the shots- but I find it hard to get them now. I am on the COLLIDIAL SILVER drops-seems to have helped! I was around my friend who has three kids with the flu andd she has it too. Oh great, I thought. I was too lazy to go and get the shots when they were available. Now the swine flu shot they won't give me because I AM NOT A MEMBER OF THE CLINIC. Oh well, I wish you well. I THINK IF i CAN FIND A CAR TO DRIVE UP TO CANADA IN A HOSPITAL THEY WILL GIVE ME A SHOT.LOL FOR SURE! NO MONEY. HOPE YOU FEEL BETTER. LOVE JENNY23OOOOOXXX.

    • Close Pulmonary Hypertension

      I had bad asthma, but then I started having racing/irregular heart beating and trouble breathing. Finally I had a pacemker and total AV node ablasion. No change. Finally after many tests, they found I had a leaking mitral valve and I have just had open heart surgery. No change. My lung pressures are 63 and I am waiting to see a Pulmonary Specialist, but getting worse every day.

      Treatments

      Humex Not Working
      A few years ago I was given a beta blocker but that gave me side effects. I take lasic for the huge swelling I have but it is up and down. I am so scared and dont know where to go from here or what life expectancy there is with this disease.
