GET YOUR MEDICAL RECORDS FROM ALL SOURCES THAT HAVE THEM & STUDY THEM ALL. THANK GOODNESS FOR THE INTERNET ETC.
I have some horrible news. I've had to be my own doctors for YEARS. I've had a heart issues and other, since living in Toxic Mold apartment in 1998-2002. It was a very expensive apartment in upscale area. I was in ER several times for Atrial Fib with other health problems after moving into the Toxic Mold apartment.
My compensation was $90.00/hr full-time on SVP budgets. I was also paid $90.00/hr while on a plane traveling. I could work virtual with travel. I was driving nice cars, shopping in Neiman Marcus and doing very well. Belonged to the top work-out club and tennis club. I was having a nice life. No, need to create a law suit or health problems I didn't have.
Before, the Toxic Mold apartment I use to play tennis and work out 2 hours a day. I could sleep 6-7 hours a night. I'd be up and ready to work and play without coffee.
I was always very healthy before. NO health issues. Prior Doctors said I had a very strong heart.
I become sicker and sicker while living in that Toxic Mold apartment. When I worked-out or play tennis would get dizzy about 2 years after moving in. My CBC blood counts dropped. I lost my career. Then, had massive medical bills. Was in ER often.
I contacted the apartment management several times saying it felt damp and heard drips in the walls. They did nothing. It also had foundation leaks which they didn't tell me. I couldn't see what was in the walls. I cleaned weekly and also had maids.
The story goes on extensively, but, not why I'm making this particular post.
I ended up with Legionella.
I didn't know until a water leak came above the floor in bathroom into the walk-in closet.
The management moved me out. Neighbors called and mentioned my old apartment was boarded up. We saw many expensive apartments boarded up. But, the apartment management would not advise why or what was going on.
I tried to sue the Bn$ management company but ....I was only a renter and didn't have big rich attorneys.
For years, to recoup my health; I detoxed, wheat-grassed, drank tons of water to get the toxins out of me. I went to top green detox camps that Hollywood Stars go to detox with green leafy juicing. I spent a FORTUNE trying to get my health back.
I haven't had a vacation in 20 years. All money went back into trying to re-build my health so to work and support myself. My health has never been the same and never will. It was a daily routine with juicing green leafy veggies at Mothers Market every morning.
Over the years my Atrial Fib and Heart problems escalated. With more and more ER visits. I was provided a Heart medication called Cartia XT. Other doctors asked why I was prescribed the Cartia XT as a Heart Medication for Atrial Fib. However, I was going to what's considered a top Heart Doctors practice in Newport Beach. So I trusted them. I kept taking the Cartia XT. Most times the Heart drug wouldn't work. I was in ER often.
It cost me a fortune in time off work and money. Medical bills were extensive. I fell behind. It was hard as I was only one who paid my bills.
I went to a new Internist when ObamaCare canceled my Blue Cross. ObamaCare Gov took over which limited my doctors to the lowest class on the planet. I asked the new Internist for an Echo-cardiogram. I hadn't had any heart follow-up for a while. But, was starting to feel like my Heart was getting weaker. It felt like a pin was going through my heart.
I demanded to go through Hoag Heart for my Echo test.
After the new and super busy Internist simply said I had Atrial Fib and it was normal.
While in Hoag ER later (which Hoag has always been exceptional); I was provided another heart medication called Diltaizem. I noticed it worked well. I researched it myself. Turned out that Diltaizem was the normal and best Heart Drug for Atrial Fib. I had to request that heart drug from my Internist MYSELF.
Turns out, for years I was provided the wrong heart medication. I knew something was wrong but afraid to speak up. I was seeing the top Heart Practice Doctors.
Where I live if you speak up and don't agree with your doctor they drop you from their practice. They don't care if something doesn't work. Just don't speak up. Patents keep roaming from Doctor to Doctor. But, if you have someone with you or a family watching the Doctor they treat you better.
I kept taking the new Diltaizem Heart Med and wasn't in the ER for Atrial Fib. I noticed it was working at 120mil. I was back to working-out and doing OK. But, still slept longer with less energy than most people I noticed my age.
THEN, over the past 1-2 years my heart seemed to become worse with 'weaker.' I tried working-out almost every day to keep my heart strong. I could barely feel my heart beat. One work-out and I was very weak the rest of the day.
Past year 2017, it's been so hard. Fevers, sweats, heart palpitations, stabbing pains more often through my heart. Sleeping longer etc. Passing out, turning white with white lips. The list went on.
Along with, lower white blood count. And, Sjorgen's going up - which read and know from an Attorney health issues below that infection in bone or heart can cause Sjorgen's.
I sent for medical records through my Insurance Company in 2014. This is because I requested a doctors records who refused to provide them.
Along with the Doctors records came the DIAGNOSIS for my Heart Echo-cardiogram. This was the Echo-cardiogram the Internist ordered that I had at Hoag.
I FOUND OUT DOCTORS COULD HAVE TREATED MY HEART PROBLEM. HOWEVER, COVERED IT UP OR LAZY.
The worst part is: The past year I've been getting dizzy with stabbing pains through my heart more often. In ER with basically stating Atrial Fib and to follow up with Doctors who DID NOTHING except to raise my Heart medication.
2017, I was in ER where they couldn't regulate my heart any more.
I kept thinking "what's causing all this, something has to be causing it all."
This past few months I started getting dizzy with actually passing out. Taken to the hospital with white face and lips by an Ambulance after almost passing out. Before when in ER I could drive myself when my heart pills didn't work. This is NOT me. I'm too young to be dealing with health issues that 80 year olds have. I use to be very healthy.
These extreme health issues are not caused by a personal defect that ran in my family or I was born with. Something has to be causing it. I was so healthy before.
I could tell my heart was hardly beating, and at night. I could barely feel my heart beat. My heart was getting weaker and weaker this past year. I could feel it starting to worsen last year. But, was tolerable. I have stamina raised by military dad. I just keep trying.
Before, the Toxic Mold apartment my doctors would say I had the strongest heart.
I was stuck on Obama Insurance after OBCare canceled my Blue Cross. I had to DEMAND and Echo-cardiogram myself several years later in 2014, by an Internist Doctor. I would only HAVE THE ECO-CARDIOGRAM at Hoag Hospital. The Obama Care doctors don't work out of Hoag. I went anyway.
The doctors just said, Atrial Fib. I kept thinking, YES, I know I have ATRIAL FIB. I'D DRIVE HOME AND KEPT THINKING "WHAT IS CASING IT."
The doctors didn't tell me that I had ENDOCARDITIS which is treatable and causes all the symptoms I've been having and getting worse.
I FOUND OUT I HAD ENDOCARDITIS ON MY OWN. I ORDERED MY MEDICAL RECORDS 'DIRECTLY' FROM THE INSURANCE COMPANY WHEN A DOCTOR REFUSED TO PROVIDE RECORDS UPON REQUEST. THE INSURANCE COMPANY SENT THE 'ENDOCARDITIS' DIAGNOSIS. Which NO doctor told me over several years.
AND, ENDOCARDITIS is TREATABLE / CURABLE !
I finally, had the REASON that kept gnawing at me. For why I had Atrial Fib. And, reading it was TREATABLE / CURABLE.
THIS IS THE TRUTH - THE COVER-UP BECOME WORSE:
I had to be referred to another Heart Doctor. I went to another Internist after questioning the last Internist why they didn't tell me. I was dropped from the other Internist practice for speaking up and asking them why I was not advised of the Echo-cardogram results.
The new Internist sent me to a Heart Doctor.
IT BECAME WORSE TRYING TO GET HELP THROUGH ANOTHER HEART DOCTOR. EVEN THOUGH I HAD IN MY HAND THE INSURANCE COMPANY DIAGNOSIS PAPERWORK OF ENDOCARDITIS.
I went to another Heart Doctor through OBcare etc. Stuck from down turn economy. I took the Insurance Company diagnosis of ENDOCARDITIS. I gave the paper of the ENDOCARDITIS DIAGNOSIS to the Heart Doctors front desk YOUNG KID including my other Heart Records from Hoag ER. I saw the Doctors Front Desk KID take the ENDOCARDITIS diagnosis paper out of my heart paperwork I gave him (I swear this is the truth). I asked the front desk young kid; "what are you doing." He said; "didn't need that." I said "yes you do." Turned out the young KID was in his Jr. year at UCI college. I think he was the Doctors son.
IT GET'S WORSE TRYING TO GET MY HEART FIXED.
I sat in the waiting room for 1+ hour. Then, taken back to the patient room. Where 2 college KIDS took 1.5 hours of notes. After she walked out the door I looked in my Doctor file. The ENDOCARDITIS diagnoses sent from the Insurance company was MISSING - AGAIN !. They REMOVED the Endocarditis diagnosis from my chart and refused to acknowledge it.
THAT DOCTORS OFFICE PURPOSELY TOOK THE ENDOCARDITIS DIAGNOSIS OUT OF MY DOCTOR RECORD FILE. JUST LIKE THE INTERNIST WHOM I DEMANDED TO HAVE THE ECHO-CARDIOGRAM DONE THROUGH AT HOAG HOSPITAL - ALSO DIDN'T TELL ME THAT I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH ENDOCARDITIS.
The Heart Doctor's office was purposely covering up my ENDOCARDITIS heart diagnosis. BECAUSE IT'S TREATABLE/CURABLE ! Therefore, they wouldn't be able to run up my insurance company money with more tests etc.
IT BECAME MUCH WORSE !
I asked the young KID girl where my ENDOCARDITIS Diagnosis was and she played dumb. I had them make a copy and put back on file for the doctor to see. I had my original copies on me. I had extra copies of my medical records for the doctors office.
After sitting in that doctors office for 3+ hours the DOCTOR 'FINALLY' walked in for 1-2 minutes. The Heart Doctors phone ran. He stepped out to speak on the phone for another 10-15 minutes.
The Heart Doctor came back after only speaking with me for 1-2 minutes (I swear the TRUTH) and wanted to DOUBLE my heart pill medication from 180 to 360 ml ! I was shocked and spoke up and said "NO." My Doctor Records were still sitting on the desk. The Heart Doctor never looked at my file ! THE DOCTOR NEVER LOOKED IN MY FILE or spoke to me AT ALL. However, said he was going to double my heart medication and JUST WALKED OUT THE DOOR - NEVER SAW HIM AGAIN. That was April of of 2017.
IT BECAME WORSE.
After sitting at the Heart Doctors office for 3+ hours with speaking to KIDS in Jr. level College...WHILE ONLY SEEING THE HEART DOCTOR FOR 1-2 MINUTES SAYING TO DOUBLE MY HEART PILLS WHEN HE NEVER SAW MY FILE.
THEN, while checking out at the front desk of the Heart Doctors office the young KID staff said the Heart Doctor wanted to RUN ME THROUGH TESTS IN THEIR OFFICE USING THEIR CARDIAC TESTING EQUIPMENT. I kept thinking "what the heck, the doctor didn't tell me or discuss any tests with me."
IT BECAME WORSE !
I went back for a test. Only then did they state that I would be given an IV of medication. Prior, no one mentioned an IV medication during a cardiac test. It was NOT discussed with me prior. AND, the doctors office wanted me to sign my name to an empty electronic PAD that I acknowledged something or other but wouldn't state my signature was for a specific reason. I had no idea what I was signing on a blank electronic pad. It didn't have any documents attached to it. Like when you sign an electronic pad at the bank after swiping your bank card. Without documents attached so you know what documents your signing or what your actually acknowledging. I REFUSED to sign the electronic pad. I asked what drugs they were giving me in the IV and why it wasn't discussed with me prior ? I asked why IV drugs needed for the cardiac testing. NOTHING WAS DISCUSSED WITH ME PRIOR TO THE TESTING - NOTHING. They only told me generally what the tests were. I asked what drugs in the IV. Then, they handed me a sheet of several drugs that I never heard of. And, the sheet stated they could use one or the other drug (nothing specific). THIS HEART DOCTORS OFFICE WAS GIVING ME IV DRUGS WITHOUT THE DOCTOR DISCUSSING WITH ME OR ME EVEN KNOWING PRIOR TO WALKING IN FOR A TEST THAT I WOULD HAVE AN IV WITH CERTAIN DRUGS. I said, that "NO ONE IS GIVING ME IV MEDICATIONS IN AN OLD DOCTORS OFFICE WITH REALLY OLD EQUIPMENT AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THOSE DRUGS ARE FOR."

I've never been through anything so shady with a Doctors office like this before. I've never seen anything like this before. It was about as illegal as you get. This is what ObamaCare is like.
I didn't trust them. I swear the doctor only saw me for 1-2 minutes and wanted to DOUBLE MY HEART PILL MEDICATION. And, I never saw him look at my medical records. My file was sitting right there. It never left the office. The young KID staff would come in one/one and take notes. Then, leave for 1.2 hour and come back.
THEN, while standing at the front desk on the day which I was to have IV medications and some type of test....my gut screamed NO Don't let these people touch me. Let alone load me up with medication I have no idea what it is - and, I'm to sign away my acknowledgement on a BLANK ELECTRONIC PAD.
Therefore, my protection guard kicked in. I had to think how to get the cardiac tests IN A MORE RELIABLE AND UPDATED CARDIAC TESTING EQUIPMENT IN AN HONEST MEDICAL FACILITY. I requested ALL MY CARDIAC TESTS BE DONE AT HOAG HOSPITAL. That is where I had to Echo-cardiogram that diagnosed the Endocarditis which DOCTORS HAVE COVERED UP OR IGNORED FOR (APPEARS) YEARS. And, it's treatable/curable.
Because I advised the Heart Doctors office that I; "would only have my Heart Tests done at Hoag Hospital". The doctors office sent me a letter dropping me from his practice and lied in his DOCTOR NOTES.
I BELIEVE HE FIGURED I WAS TOO SMART FOR HIS BS. While at the Heart Doctors office, I looked over and they had EXTREMELY OLD AND BEAT UP Cardiac diagnostics EQUIPMENT in a big room I walked by. It was very old and beat up. Looked liked used for decades. It was disgusting. Even the furniture in the waiting room looked like pulled out of a dumpster.
And, this was a Heart Doctor referred by Internist in a nice area about 10 miles from Hoag. But, those doctors don't work out of Hoag. I found because they're all SHADY on OBCare. They burn patents through like water.
That Heart Doctor wanted to run up my Insurance money using his OLD CARDIAC DIAGNOSTICS EQUIPMENT ONLY. So to generate revenue to his medical practice ONLY. I was not allowed to have the testing done anywhere else. My Insurance would have paid for it.
The office was disgusting.
THAT DOCTORS OFFICE WANTED TO USE ME TO RUN UP THEIR BILLING BY SENDING ME THROUGH THEIR CARDIAC DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENT ONLY. THEY WANTED ME TO HAVE SEVERAL TESTS IN THEIR DOCTORS OFFICE ONLY. THEREFORE, THAT HEART DOCTOR COULD RUN UP THE INSURANCE COMPANY BILLING FOR HIS OFFICE. THE MONEY WOULD GO IN HIS POCKET FOR SEEING ME FOR ONLY 1-2 MINUTES ! He never even looked in my file. It was sitting on the desk. I watched.
I was not allowed to have the cardiac testing with updated (NEW) equipment at Hoag.
I wanted my cardiac tests done at Hoag Hospital. And, where I could pick up my records, myself. AND, I WOULD KNOW THAT NOTHING WOULD BE COVERED UP BY THE DOCTOR. I COULD PICK UP ALL MY RECORDS FROM HOAG AND GET THE TRUTH. That Heart Doctor already had a track-record of covering up the document I provided from previous Echo-cardiogram done at Hoag several years prior.
My brain and gut were saying NO - Don't let them touch you. Don't trust them. Especially, giving me an IV of medication that I had no idea how my body would react or exactly what used for. And, I have small veins. When in Hoag it takes certain nurses or they use and Ultrasound IV to find my vein. I've blown a few tubes as well and blood is all over my arm. Sometimes poked with IV several times before they can get a vein. But, Hoag now calls a special person to get the vein.
Since, I've been getting sicker and sicker with passing out - this year. I can't get any help.
I FINALLY STARTED TREATING MYSELF & BEING MY OWN DOCTOR ! I had to.
In 2017, I started passing out with hardly feeling my heart beat. Then, with worse Atrial Fib.
2 months ago an Internist gave me an Antibiotic for urine bacteria etc. I noticed while taking the Antibiotic that my heart seemed to be more steady. My energy picked up. I could actually feel my heart steady beat at night. However, prior I could not feel my heart beat at all unless in Atrial Fib or palpitations.
I've been so busy over the years and TRUSTED MY DOCTORS BUT NONE OF THE DOCTORs TOLD ME ABOUT 'ENDOCARDITIS'.
I STARTED TREATING MYSELF.
About a month after finishing the Bacteria Antibiotic. In my spare time I researched ENDOCARDITIS. I knew, I couldn't tell any doctors as they'd cover it up. They ALL blow it off as NOTHING.
Is it because they don't want to treat it ?
Is it because they don't want me to get better ?
Is it because they're all psychopaths and want to run up my insurance money ?
Why not?
I was reading over and over - that it was treatable / curable. And, left untreated becomes worse and very server health issues over time.
I went back to my Internist 20 days ago and simply told him I'm getting fevers. I was AFRAID to mention the ENDOCARDITIS. Because every-time I did, the doctors IGNORED ME AND BRUSHED IT OFF.
I went to the Internist and asked for the same Antibiotic I took when had the urine bacteria infection - the drug is named >>>>>. I looked it up and can be used to treat ENDOCARDITIS. But, takes a long time on the Antibiotic.
Most Endocarditis is treated in the Hospital on Antibiotics.
Since taking the Antibiotic last 20 days, I can feel my heart at night with beating mostly regular without Heart Meds. My energy has picked up, extensively. Before, I was sleeping and tired all the time. My mind is clearer. I don't have fevers any more. The nights sweats are diminishing.
The doctor only gave me 20. I was to take those 2x's / day. But, I'm sensitive to medication and been taking 1 a day to stretch out and TEST IT.
I can fell my body start to come back.
Additionally, I started to get low white count etc. the last 2 years.
I've had ENDOCARDITIS diagnosed since 2014. I probably had ENDOCARDITIS BEFORE when seeing the High Profile Expensive Doctor, who did nothing. And, every doctor I saw COVERED IT UP AND DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. WHILE I'VE BEEN GETTING SICKER AND SICKER OVER THE YEARS.
I had to find out my diagnosis by a fluke when my Insurance Company sent me the diagnosis of ENDOCARDITIS.
I keep reading about Endocarditis is treatable.
Also, bacterial infections can trigger Sjorgens. Which is what I have.
NOT ONE DOCTOR HAS HELPED ME. IN FACT THEY'VE RUN ME AROUND AND IGNORED THE VERY CORE PROBLEM MAKING ME SICK.
This is why RICH & POLIICIAN with big attorneys live happier, healthier, and longer lives. Doctors don't mess with RICH people. And, they have access to better Doctors off ObamaCare.
We allways wonder why RICH and Politicians live longer and healthier lives. WELL, THIS IS WHY.
While rest of US are run around in circles and treated like we're idiots only used to as a revenue generator for Doctors.
I spoke with a guy budding in Insurance for 30 years. He said this goes on all the time. Doctors don't treat you. Only medicate you. They make money off the prescriptions they sell to you. They get perks with commissions and trips from the pharmaceutical companies. All the while YOU get sicker and sicker because the medication does not FIX THE PROBLEM. Just helps you get by for the time.
Well, I'm not a girl who gives up. Problem is: if you speak up and tell doctors or show them the diagnosis; they drop you from the practice or ignore you.
Now, there is a history of doctors NOT treating me. Therefore, other doctors won't treat me.
But, I have the evidence and making this public.
Always get your medical records. The doctors act like your best friend and you trust them. While you're busy. You think they will treat you.
One thing I've learned as middle-class - is you have to be your own doctor, you have to be your own accountant.
ALWAYS GET YOUR MEDICAL RECORDS FROM THE HOSPITAL, THE INSURANCE COMPANY, AND THE DOCTORS OFFICE.
If I let this go, would basically be in a wheel chair at 70 years old.
THANK GOD, FOR THE INTERNET AND GOOGLE.
Not everything you read on Google is wrong. There are direct doctor etc. websites which post accurate information.
I see my Internist on Monday. Hoping he'll listen after I say the Antibiotic has helped and I'm making this very public.
And, I should have FAXED MY Electrocardiogram diagnosis of Endocarditis. Then, it's documented as faxed and they can't cover up. when, you hand a doctor information in private they can say never received it. But, a FAX is documented if you keep the FAX receipt.
Appears these doctors didn't wanted to treat me to FIX THE ISSUES. But, simply keep me coming back to raise my heart medication until my heart failed.
I'm going to make this public with ENDOCARDITIS and GETTING ALL YOUR MEDICAL RECORDS FROM ALL SOURCES - NOT JUST YOUR DOCTORS RECORDS. BUT, HAVE YOUR TESTS DONE AT A REPUTABLE HOSPITAL AND PICK THOSE RECORDS UP TOO. ALSO, FROM YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY.
I was so healthy before. I was having the best life you could ever image. NOT ONE DOCTOR TOLD ME ABOUT THE ENDOCARDITIS ! AND, IT'S TREATABLE.
___________
An Attorney told me that his father was Chief of Surgery of a big Los Angeles Hospital (won't name it as a hospital Hollywood stays). His Dad passed-on. The Attorney kept getting sicker and sicker. He almost died. His immune system went up. He lost is eyelashes and most his hair. He was in the same hospital which his father was previous Chief of Surgery while the Doctors were trying to figure out what was wrong with him. He kept telling the Doctors an infection in the BONE. He said the doctors wouldn't listen until his friend a, medical malpractice attorney, called his doctors with threatening them to do a BONE MARROW BIOPSY or would sue, if the Attorney died. Turned out the Attorney had TB in the BONE after a Bone Marrow biopsy was done. The Attorney was treated with high-levels of Antibiotics for a while at the hospital. He lived but his eyelashes etc. didn't return.
NOT ONE DOCTOR OVER THE YEARS SAID I HAD "ENDOCARDITIS." I know other heart scans were done early on by the HIGHER PROFILE Heart Doctor. Than, after I demanded another Echo-cardiogram years later the Internist Doctor never told me the diagnosis was ENDOCARDITIS. THEN, when I did provide another Heart Doctor the Insurance Company document stating ENDOCARDITIS diagnosis the Doctors office threw the paper in my file away and REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE IT - at all.
This is my health and my body. I love to work and enjoy life. I'm making this very public. I wonder how many with Heart Problems had Endocarditis early on and could be living VERY NICE LIVES WHILE OLDER but stuck in a wheelchair seeing DOCTORS OVER AND OVER.

I have to re-type this better. So much went on with my heart. Hard to sum it all up without writing an entire book. But, busy right now. It's a little messy. I wanted to get it started.
I keep wondering since finding my ENDOCARDITIS was obviously and purposely ignored and covered up - by those doctors office. HOW MANY OTHERS have heart issues covered up - that could have been fixed early on.
I have a guy-buddy in Insurance for 30 years. He said this goes on "all the time." Doctors cover up diagnosis and don't treat the real problem. Only medicate and run up their billing and their own diagnostic equipment for profits.
Now, I still have to find a way to be treated. No one wants to actually try to fix me.
I may, make the last doctors name public who tried desperately to cover-up my diagnosis this year. I witnessed he's simply running people through for profit and not treating people. I PERSONALLY saw his front desk Jr. KID (probably his Son) pull the ENDOCARDITIS diagnosis out of my medical records I gave him. And, after I told him to put back. It was taken out again when I check while back in the patient room. I had to check again. It was not there. I had to make them copy it again. Luckily, I took my originals.
He's was running patients through with 5-10 in waiting room to see him. But, that's ObamaCare. While using young KIDS in his office whom are still in 1st year of college who work minimum wadge taking notes as the DOCTOR does nothing.
I want my Independent PPO health insurance back to where it was ! And, money to pay for it.
GET YOUR OWN MEDICAL RECORDS FOR ALL SOURCES.
DON'T HAVE YOUR TESTS DONE IN THE DOCTORS OFFICE. HAVE DONE BY A 3RD PART OR HOSPITAL YOU CAN EASILY WALK IN AND PICK UP YOUR RECORDS.
GET YOUR RECORDS FROM YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY.
STUDY YOUR OWN HEALTH ISSUES. IT'S YOUR JOB TO KNOW YOUR HEALTH.
NONE OF THESE DOCTORS WERE ACTUALLY RUDE TO ME. THEY APPEARED DECENT PEOPLE. NO, THE WEREN'T. THEY RAN UP MY INSURANCE BILLING AND MONEY - AND I GOT NOTHING BUT THE SHAFT.
Now, I have to find a real Doctor to try and help me fix ENDOCARDITIS. I keep reading if not treated I'll get worse and worse. That is what's happening.
