Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 Neither of us go to DR's ,,, don't have much faith in them. I just hope we got a good one Bobbie, I definitely understand what you're saying. Maybe you'll get a good one. If you don't, at least he'll check your husband out and next time you can go to a different one. Let us know what happens.

Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 Bobbie, Glad that his EKG was fine. His blood pressure could have been a little higher than usual because most people's are higher in the doc's office. A doctor usually has to take someone's blood pressure several times before they come up with a reliable number. Plus if your husband's stressed that can affect it too. Tell me, if you will, what the doctor did to decide that Tom has an hiatal hernia. Thanks, Susie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 Nothing,,,he just explained his symptoms and thats what he said it was. He did a chest x-ray,, but that didn't show the hernia, but he said that didn't surprise him since he wasn't having an attack right then. He said a barium x-ray is the only way to be sure but he said those taste really bad,, so lets see if the Zantac works first. That was it.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2002 Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 Oops! Just finished this line of posts. Glad you got him in. Don't be afraid to get a second opinion if there is any lingering concern. Dr's are certainly not perfect and can make mistakes. Dawn I found him to be very dry,, not too worried about > anything, and no bedside manner. > Oh well ,we'll see how it goes. > Bobbie > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
