Good morning all,

First I want to thank you all that have wished me well, sent prayers,

and keep me in your thoughts =)

Well the saga continues as usual with me.....

Mike finally made me call pcp last night to see if I should go to the

ER - well pcp said my hospital was at code red, and since he knows

how I feel about the ER to begin with he said it would really be a

waste of time for me to go, even with these chest pains because all

they would do for me is take a chest x-ray, blood work, and that is

about it. He said I would probably not even get back to the treatment

area until after midnight and this was 7pm when I spoke to him. He

said is there anyway I could hold off until morning and then stop by

the office to grab a chest x-ray. I said well the rhuemy wants me to

have x-rays done including a chest ray and I was planning on doing

them tomorrow anyways so I will just hold off until Friday when I see

both of you. He said ok and have a good night.

I think my pcp has given up trying to figure out what is wrong,

before this year he was on top of everything, ordering every test

known to man and well now this year he has slacked off with the rest

of my so called top notch docs and left everything in my rhuemys

hands. Oh well, we shall see what Friday brings - trust me I have

thought about asking to be admitted until I have answers but

unfortunetly here in the Rochester NY area they don't do that, there

needs to be a good reason why your admitted into the hosp, and

well " unknown " isn't a good enough reason, we tried it last year when

we couldn't figure out at first why I couldn't keep any food or water

down - but I can still try.

Well wanted to drop you all a note and fill ya in. I am off to do lab

work, and x-rays so the docs have it all by Friday morning.

Have a great day everyone....

Love to you and hugs
