I moved to Georgia in 2005 hoping to start a new life and got ill and I went to a Doctor who eventually
Put me on a medication called Lipitor for high cholesterol within 1 month I began to complain to him of
Feeling very sick such as muscle aches all over me and dizziness all the time so he told me I will get use
To it, but after third 3 month I began to faint and fall down instantly so after telling him that he still told me
That if I did not take it I will die so in fright and feeling trapped I decided to stop this medication but it really was too late. My heart failed into a fibrillation of the heart and blood cots and of course that sets my heart beating to fast which now I am on Coumadin and other medication as heart pills high blood pressure, anti depression and pain medication. Fosmax for Osteoporosis, FibroMayalgia
I have also been in the hospital 10 times since 2005 I am now 55 years old, I now was told after taking a MRI in June 2008, and it states: Multilevel spondylosis. The most prominent impingement is at C5-6
Where there is left central impingement on the thecal sac and flattening of the cord. The neural foramen are also narrowed bilaterally. Milder degrees of compression are seen above and below this level. There is mild bulge at L2-3. This will cause crippling or po0ssible vegetate state. I have tried with all my heart to get on my feet but it seems to me these doctors are not addressing the problem with my spinal cord flatten I know my time is limited I have ask for surgery but 2 doctors tell me its too late there is no surgery so my dream of moving to Atlanta to pursue my dream as a singer which I have done all my life and my Mother who pass away in 1993 and she was only 58 years always taught me NEVER GIVE UP FIGHT TO THE END.. We grew up in a family of 7- 6 sister’s and 1 brother and we were very poor but started work when we was 13. My Mom started me singing in Church at the age of 7, and started singing professionally in 1971. I pray everyday for a dream to come true to let me go back to School at least to get a Business Degree and work at home for as long as I live or let me work so I can get the money to create a CD of my music before its too late. My father was in World War II, he was in the Navy he was a Gunner on the Ship and fighting in the war. My father is 82 and now has cancer, he is a remarkable father and grandfather and great
Grandfather. We was born in Louisville Kentucky.
Plenty mistakes by Doctors in my pass which almost cost me my life and recently a Nurse called me on the
Phone and told me the Doctor say take a extra Coumadin pill within 5 days I was hospitalized for 5 days heart rate was 200 very high I was in CCU for 3 days. Another case the Doctor check my coumadin level and told me it was fine in a day later I go to the Heart Doctor and tell me it was way too thin stop the coumadin right now that is why you are dizzy. Now my faith is in God I am too afraid to go the Hospital or Doctors and these are the people we trust. Thank You for listening to my story .
Thank You
