Zanna - Pulmonary & Rheumy

[Guest guest]

Zanna... I get the same way when I'm asked a question at the doctors

office. I call it my brain fog. You're right, after a while you

forget when all the pain or breathlessness started because you get use

to it. I also think that when you go to a doctor on a regular basis,

you depend on that doctor to tell you that it's NOT normal and send you

to a specialist. If that doctor says and does nothing... you begin to

feel that he must think it's normal for your condition.... and you do

nothing about it.

As for the question " how long have you had PM " ..... The answer would be

" I was diagnosed in Dec. 98 " ... they already know that you had the

disease long before you were diagnosed.

I think I looked up Dr. Gold... If I remember correctly he's in his

60's... I'm just so glad he's nice and doing all the testing on you.
