Ok, saw the family dr. that I like yesterday. I've also been feeling kinda breathless in the past month and tend to asthma symptoms in the fall. Haven't been wheezing(other than the feeling breathless) and definitely not coughing. So he did listen to the lungs and they are starting to fill up. He wants to re-do the lyme tests. My uric acid level was low which would indicate gout so doing a wider inflammatory screening. He did give me a double round of zithromax cuz I am clearly not feeling well, invo...something or other---an anti-inflmatory and my usual fall advair inhaler. No need to cry, I was very breathless yesterday with quiet voice(ok, quieter than usual) and very tired. I already have an appointment for a re-check in 2 weeks. -- Spirit World

In reply to: Viive 's message, "(((((((((((JEANNIE)))))))))It reminds me a lot of when I had juvenile rheumatoid arthritis...I wouldn't wish that pain on anyone!! .I found for myself that not eating red meats and anything in the 'deadly nightshade' family, helped me keep it under control.....(that was peppers, potatoes, tomatoes...)...I really really hope you find out what the cause is so you can move forward better with dealing with it...and I just hope most of all that it goes AWAY for you! Got to get the doctors taking you seriously, I've noticed that tears work....pathetic as that is, the wailers and criers seem to get dealt with more seriously...anyway, wishing you a quick diagnosis and a great recovery!
