Heart doctor says the problem isn't on his end. Pulmonologist says the same thing. They try to blame it on my anemia, but treatment isn't doing anything. I just now chalk it up to the old body becoming a carcass and look at near death videos for comfort !!!!!!!! I hope the doctors can help better than mine have!!!!
