Comment to a Blog

A friend turned me on to your posts emailing a link. Very interesting. I have felt my grandfather watching over me since he passed away when I was 4 or so, and a girlfriend, for lack of a better term, although the relationship was more, and less, than that, of many years died of breast cancer at 46 in '98, I hear her talking to me constantly, but then she always told me it would take more than dying for me to get rid of her... I tell people she's here, and they think I'm nuts, so I don't anymore. I recently, in Dec and again in Feb had something happen, dizziness, numb right side of face, constant headache. My opinion of Drs is similar to yours, and when this happened everybody said see a Dr, go to the hospital, blah, blah. I waited to see if it would go away, saying can't afford it, no insurance, and if I do they'll run thousands of dollars in tests and not know anymore than I do from googling, then tell me to take an asperin, which I'd already started. It didn't go away on its own, I applied for and got insurance through NYS, so I went to the Dr, and, and, and...exactly what I said, seen several Drs, GP, Cardiologist, Neurologist, scheduled for Heart and Brain Surgeons, they've run tests, I've heard possible mini strokes, ms, brain tumor, strokes, now back to mini strokes, and the guessing goes on. Last I heard the cardiologist says small hole in upper chamber of heart that I was probably born with may have passed a clot, and needs to be fixed, the neuologist thinks, but isn't sure an artery in the back of my neck may, yes may, be partially blocked and causing the symptoms and should be fixed. The only thing they've said that I can prove is low scale diabeties, so I'm taking the blood pressure and cholesterol and have added cinnamon, garlic, ginkgo bilboa, apple cider vinegar, for the arteries and blood thinning, and bitter melon for the diabeties. It's just as I figured the Drs don't have a clue.
