If you had been in Arizona a little longer, I could've shared with you my secrets of finding them. Maybe next time. And thank you for the concern about my health issues. It is getting better each day.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05146226726351299463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5980992536001449329.post-64433681245554031792016-04-21T19:52:16.927-07:002016-04-21T19:52:16.927-07:00No. And I should have updated the knee issue. It...No. And I should have updated the knee issue. It's almost completely fine now. It still gets a little painful, but I don't need to use a cane anymore and I'm no longer on the drug schedule. Now I only take something for the pain when I'm actually IN pain. I no longer need to get ahead of it, which makes me happy. When I was in the hospital that day, they did do chest X-rays because the shortness of breath I was experiencing (I was sick, which is why I went to begin with), they were concerned with blood clots. There was a spot on one of my lungs they were a bit concerned about...until I told them it's been there since the 90s and the ER doctor wasn't too concerned at that time, figuring it was from an old case of bronchitis or something. I've had chest X-rays since then as part of my follow-up care from cancer and it never concerned anyone.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05146226726351299463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5980992536001449329.post-47260231768886903962016-04-21T16:28:00.951-07:002016-04-21T16:28:00.951-07:00wow I am envious of you seeing the wild horses.

My husband had pain in his legs that got diagnosed as restless leg syndrome. Then he had pain in his chest that got diagnosed as pneumonia after an x-ray. It turned out that he had blood clots in his legs and lungs in both cases. It's hard to diagnose, and urgent cares and ERs are in too much of a rush to really study the images.Nuzzling Muzzleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07649710635013663900noreply@blogger.com
