Im going to sleep now. Really havent received any definite answers that I am satisfied with yet. The doctors are kind of guessing still and taking stabs in the dark. They plan on doing more testing so they can get more information. So far they have guessed lung cancer and ruled that out when I reminded them of my previous lung surgery because of cancer spots. I reminded them that that the artifacts that always show up in the right lung is scar tissue. So they ruled lung cancer out. Next, they guessed minor heart attacks but havent gotten any strong proof. After that, they thought that I had an infection in the rt. lung. They ruled that out today and stopped giving me IV antibiotics. Earlier today they were thinking that I had excessive fluid in the lungs. I told them that that didnt make any sense asked them why it only affects me when I go to the bathroom, when Im getting rid of fluids and not when Im jogging all over the cross country course or doing work. They cant explain it. A couple hours later another doctor came in and said that he thinks that because I got sick than everybody in the house got sick and I got sick again and we all had coughs that thats whats going on. That still doesnt answer why I only have these attacks at night when I wake up to go to the bathroom. The last guess so far is possible Pulmonary Hypertension. But Staci and I think that, thats only because we mentioned that we have an appointment for the 15th because the U of C Cardiac Team sent a letter that they wanted to run some tests because during my open heart they suspected that I may have Pulmonary Hypertension. In the meantime, Im doing very well. I havent had an attack today and they took me off the renal diet. I have to go now, the nurse just walked in. Thanks again for all the prayers and well wishes. I love you all. God bless you. John
