Re: To Tawny re: heart problems

[Guest guest]

,

It sounds like you have some good doctors. Just let the doctor know

whats going on about the chest pains. If they get too bad, go to the

ER. I have noticed a rise in my BP, but not all the time, kind of

strange really. I had chest pains so bad, and I thought it was

heartburn, until it got worse. I went to the ER, and they kept me a

couple of days, run a lot of tests. They put me on antibiotics, and

that was all I needed. Let me know how your appointment goes, and I

will keep you in my prayers, Tawny
