DELETED
Clauette,
So sorry this happened to you and that you were treated so badly by the physicians office personnel. There really is no excuse for that!!! And it made you have a yucky birthday - no fair!!!
Losing eight pounds is wonderful but I'm sure you wouldn't recommend your method. I hope you are on the mend. I know you realize that many "soft" tissue problems don't show up on x-rays and pleurisy does hurt like the very devil so you may be right and it seems to me the bronchoscopy could irritate the lung enough to cause all kinds of problems.
We missed you at the meeting. Glenna was great but you were missed. We will all catch up in March, if not sooner.
Hugs and love and take care of yourself,
Lana
