The day that my life changed
One day last month my doctor told me that I had an illness called Pulmonary hypertension. My first thoughts were what type of illness is this? I started to find out all of the information that I could about this illness that I could. My doctor gave me the email address for this site and it was everything that I needed to find out all the information about pH. My family wanted to know all of the details about my newest illness. I was depressed after I talked to my doctor about where this illness could take me in the next few years.
Everyone that I know asked me if they could pray for me and I told them that it could not hurt. My doctor put me on tracleer and coumadin. This is all very new for me and I am just taking one day at a time.
