Very Happy Hi all,

I was waiting to change family doctors when I knew I wouldn't need one for awhile by feeling good for awhile. I keep getting this chest congestion though. I've got the 3rd one in about 6 weeks now. One of my doctor's interns called last night with the name of a pulmonary/cardio doctor. As soon as I called the specialist's office they gave me an appointment for Monday! The woman sounded surprised that no one at my PCP office ordered a chest ex-ray during my last 2 chest congestions. I had 1st called my family doctor's office Wednesday and again Thursday before hearing something back. Hopefully I will get over this chest congestion/infection for a good long time after seeing the specialist.

Blessings,

Barb, i am praying the pulmonary doctor will be able to help you!!! They have so many good medications that help relieve your symptoms. Try to rest and not to worry until Monday. Let us know what happens. Take care Smile peg

Barb, if you are having that many problems then a pulmonary specialist is a must....mine is also my internist so I am lucky there.

Very Happy Thanks Peg and Kay,

The congestion doesn't seem as bad tonight as it was. I think the extra sleeping I've been doing is helping me feel better.

Blessings,
