thanks msnbc for this article. Just maybe the pulmonary physicians will find the cause of the cough,inflammation instead of just prescribing drugs that do not work. personally i recall aspirating a french fry while traveling 15 years ago. just like the article says eating while a joke was told aspirating while laughing. the amazing thing is my ct shows a granuloma but i cannot locate a physician to do a bronchoscopy an remove it. the several pulmonary doctors i have seen just prescribe advair an other drugs that have never helped. finally in aug 2008 the mayo clinic in rochester minn did a choline challenge test an ruled out asthma yet my last pulmonary doctor locally still thinks asthma. maybe i need to go to mass. for a wise physician? The medical college of virginia had evil technician who said my tests were worse then emphesima then told the physician i was not giving effort. she suggested i lose weight great idea if i could breathe. unfortunately dr, haddad listened to her never examined the ct which i later had reviewed at the mayo clinic which shows calcified granuloma right lung upper lobe, calcified subcarinal nodes,negative adrenals. i was too ill to stay longer than the two weeks an had to return back to virginia without seeing the minn pulmonary people. my doctor looked at the mayo clinic results an said "your tests are all normal for people living in this area" i found another physician an back to square one treatment for allergys and asthma. he never made comment on the test results i stopped seeing him also. How do you find a physician who has knowledge? who can read an comprehende? I am tired of repeat testing with no action. by the way i eat a lot of lesuir green peas. my lungs are so bad my heart is failing an my kidneys. when you get this sick you just give up.

there is no air at parchman in ms state penetentiary, there is no infection control there. people there have diffrent medicail problems. they are human. i was told they dont want to make the imates comfartable! but what about the ones that are there for life.if God forgave them who are we to judge them. we all will be judged on judgement day. for the lord will be back soon. the lord forgives us sevrel times in a second. u can lust ,and sin with ur mind. something need to be done about that. how can they control aids and other health issues when theres no infection control the visiters that are having kity-visits should bee very concerned.
