“I have to ask, because I would find your life so fascinating: where has been your favourite place to live in your RV?”

I stay in the southwest now.  There is more open space and the sunsets are the greatest form of entertainment I can think of.   I have found it very interesting that if I am at some out of the way place and there is absolutely no human noise. . . after a day or so you start to her things that you would never have heard before.  You can hear bees that are buzzing around flowers from what would seem like an incredible distance away.  Nature sort of sings to you.  It was always there, it was just drowned out by human noise.

Hi Charlene

I make it a bit hard for doctors because I move around a lot.  I retired 5 years ago and travel full time in my RV.  It’s a great life but things like medical care are a bit tough because I don’t stay in one location.  I’ve been feeling weaker and weaker for about two years now. I thought it was a heart issue.  I spent this last winter in McAllen TX and that is where I saw a general practitioner that referred me to a heart specialist at McAllen Heart Hospital.  After a lot of testing, to include blood work, CT scan, stress test and more, the heart doctor said that I have and irregular heart beat but it is my lungs that are my problem.

I never insisted on being referred to a pulmonologist.  I don’t blame the general practitioner for this.  He had no history on me.  In Nov I have a follow up with the heart doctor and will see if he will refer me and if not I will go back to the GP and insist on a referral.

Thanks for the reply

Jim
