I agree, but the doctors i am dealing with are not good, the heart called and told me everything is just fine, The STV did go up since the last heart monitored from 162 to 188, and he is not concerned how long they last, I told him I am dizzy, feel like i am going to faint, but he brushes it off as it's my lung, and the lung doctor says everything is my heart, every doctor says something else, one minute I have raynards, then its all nerophy, so constantly leaving doctors crying, I suggest things or test and they say it's not needed, so yes I am very tired, of the medical field, one medicine I do not want to take anymore is gabpentan, 900 mg , the heart doctor transferred my inr to a pharmacy, so i have not had medicine in 4 days, because it's too much for a doctor to handle it, this is ridiculous,
