First off I would like to thank all my friends here for their concern, I thank you all. Second I found out last week I have " Secondary - Polycythemia " it's when you have a heart condition and CPOD, the test they've done twice so far is called : " Phelebotomy," I call it blood letting. First they do a test two tubes of blood, then you wait 30 minutes a real torture ! Then they give you the results mine the first time was 61 ..The Dr. said I should be below 50, today I was stuck three times, the first for the mini test, then the girl had to draw 250cc blood that's a half a bottle, twice a week. In plain English what I have is my bone marrow is producing red blood cells too fast , which can cause a heart attack or a stroke, the Dr. told me this is the easiest way to try to get the numbers down, today I was told it read 59.9, so far 2 below the original, you don't stay overnight, they draw your blood and it takes a half an hour or more. And no it's not Lukemia that's where the white blood cells eat the red blood cells. So Friday I go back again, I'm not going to worry about it, I also take two baby aspirins a day to thin the blood, the funny thing is today she used my left arm to suck the blood and after five minutes it stopped ! Then she had to start all over again and use my right arm, then it ran faster.....I told her I think the well is running dry !
Cheers..Joe |

| Just be careful while you're adjusting to Windows 7. You want to get better. You don't want to get stressed out. Ann |
