    As for the blockages-we will do nothing. too dangerous in my case. Oh lucky me also have 30percent blockage in stomach also.
    So I am one blocked up B@#%$^ !
    As for my on going problem- no idea still. He said he was sorry but that my condition is very unusual and that is why he nor other doctors know
    what is wrong. .He suggests a neurologist and or a doctor who specializes in arthritic problems...
    So will contact primary doctor and then get with one or both of the other type of doctors.

    Gloria - this reminds me of my time trying to get diagnosis, a 3 year battle
    Eventually, they suggested an MRI and that got answers. I'm so sorry for you, its an absurd and awful situation
    you may have to try calling 911 as an emergency case - you'll get sorted then :(

    Stress won't help your situation Gloria - deep breathing really helps x
    What I've been doing lately also, is standing whilst hands on worktop, then lifting up
    onto toes and you feel the legs stretch, then down. Do this a couple of times, twice a day.
    Feels good.

    Shouldn't you be seeing a cardiologist in that case? Baffled.

    Went to the lung doctor today. He decided to look me over and he said something I had wondered about in regards to my problem
    diseases.
    Scleroderma.After reading about this at Mayo clinic site...am 96 percent sure this is my disease. In fact I think my brother has a mild form of this in his back.
    Lung doctor says rehumtologist doctor is best bet. Still waiting for appointment on that. This can be caused by many different things and there are many forms of this.
    No cure and gets worse ..but hey least I have some idea of the issue and maybe get some relief down the road. :)
