Stefani- Beth is right. Also, I advise that you get to Denver too. Just my advise. I went to National Jewish and they saved my life. Because of their tests and the brillliant doctors who specialize in lung disorders they found out that I had been misdiagnosed and had something else. If I had continued the treatment I was getting here in Prescott I would have died. So, there is nothing wrong with going to the best! They are the nicest people and fully explain everything they do. You will like it at National Jewish. So, personally I think that it would be a great experience and helpful in your qwest for health. Joyce Rudy AZ

Re: Hi, I'm new.... got just tons of questions...

Beth -Thanks for responding. Yes, I live in Utah. They did one kind of biopsy with the tube down my nose (took 7 snippets of lung tissue) and those slide results were sent to Best Doctors also. The next step was the 'exploratory' to get larger tissue samples. Yes, I live in Utah and I will indeed check out the link you provided. I have not yet had a lung function test other than spirometry. This was also in the list of recommendations out of Best Doctors. I just feel like no one has done their homework but me because I have spent 3 years just getting this information on my own. Thanks ever so much for your support. Stefani

Peggy -

My father was a professional photographer so I have been around pictures all of

my life. Turns out my husband of 34 years, , is also into photography.

That is the reason for the sunrise off Padre Island. We have a similar set of

sunrise in the mountains as we are at 3800 feet above sea level and live on the

slopes of the Wasatch mountains. Really different for a gal from the midwest

flatlands. I miss my trees and lakes in MN, but you really cannot beat the

mountain vistas. I will have to swap a few out eventually as I see there is a

limit and I love sharing photos.

Thanks,

Stef
