Hey AllWell I didn't write in my journal I got busy in chat room and trying to get rid of the pain.I didn't rest much but my pain finally subsided with taking a pain pill. I know I'm not suppose to take it but it hurt. Today I went to doctor after calling in for results and telling them I"m not feeling any better. So I got up at 6am and Rhonda got up with me. We started to docs and the oil light flash every so often all the way. So when I go to doctor's office I called mom and ask her to get me some oil because I left my wallet at home with my license. So soon after I went into exam room. Got vitals and O2sat which checks your air level in your lungs. Then the doc came in we talk and she look at my xray results which was normal. But I had very low thyroid level. I told her I was having problems breathing still so she order a breathing machine test and EKG. The nurse came in and did the EKG and did the breathing test and the results came up weird so I do it again. The results were still weird. So the doctor comes in and does it twice and by that time I was having pains in my chest and problems breathing and the doctor notice thank goodness. Now I know she believes me when I said I had problems breathing.We talk about heart disease in family and I said my father and his mother. So she order a echocardiogram for Friday at 130. The nurse was then told to make a appt with lung doctor she is suppose to call me. The doctor also order me a inhaler and synthroid. So now maybe I will feel better. I've had fatigue and weight gain forever. I now weigh 289. Hopefully i will lose it. So mom got there to put oil in the van and gave me money to get more. Granny is in hospital so she went to visit with her. We went to oil express and got more oil total of 4 quarts and the guy say we may have a leak.So we went home. I got on the puter and called my friend in Georgia and talk to her. Ralph came in and I ask him to go get my meds so he did.Thank u honey. lol Well thats about it. I made it to one day past 13 years. No news from dad. We got our money for the house so they may start next week. It will take about three weeks for the work.I can't wait to get it done. We will have a deck on the house with new steps to the apartment . The ones we got now sway. Nikki is so afraid of it.Well 12 days of smiles. Even though alot of bad stuff happen today. I still bless having my God, family and ds friends. So thanks for all your support love ya.Robin

I am so sorry that you are not feeling well, but glad to hear your doc is going to do something about it. Sometimes, that is the hardest part! Take Care for now! DD
Are you talking about me?? lol
My mom is sick and has had some problems breathing too - she hasn\'t smoked since Sat, Thank God!!!!! Not the inhaler but the other meds my mom is taking and they make her hyper. I\'m not sure if they are the same as what your doctor gave you but they might actually help with your energy level. I am soooooo happy about the 13 year plus days! That is so wonderful - big hug for that! Know I\'m always here for you should you need me ok? Hugs, hugs and more hugs! Don\'t forget to keep us posted - do you think the doctor\'s appointment for Friday will result in anything or will you have to take more test with him? Whatever the case I\'ll check later on Friday - prayers and hugs! Felicia
I am glad to hear your doctor is getting right on your health problems. I hope the medications start to work quickly!
some times it takes us to have the problem surface in front of them to get them to listen to us..hang in there
