Nancy, you first posted on 9/24, and several of us were worried about your symptoms and wrote back. but you've not written since, and I have two reactions. First, to be concerned, but then second, to be annoyed. I mean, if you're going to take the time to post about something scarey, and we here take the time from our own lives to think about your life, your symptoms, and try to help, then it just seems at the least polite to acknowedge that we've paid attention.

It bothers me when people do this---post asking for help, and then walk away, as if it meant nothing to ask strangers to step in and make you part of their lives, without so much as a thank you or follow up on what they've decided to do.

Please think about this when you post. Thanks for any attention you pay to this.
