thanks annie, I am not home alone, my husband is here. went they did the antibody test which was just recently i had been on the prednisone for just at a month 20mg for a short time then up to 40 then back on 20...could that have made it come back neg? I am waiting for them to do the musk test, just got approved by ins.

I have been noticing spasm in my chest and back. and yes my pulse gets high. and then lowers itself...im watching it carefullly i feel like a ticking time bomb, i really dont want to go to the er to soon ( at this point i don't think is possible but if youve been to this hospital youd know how i feel) I did do my 02 the other day but it was fine...even when i got up and walked around....(don't think i was really excerting myself and it didn't show anything) Neuro did order pft with abg all of that but i don't know if i am being impatient but it just doesn't seem like we are moving fast enough...i want answers...and help..i see patients that are really bad compared to be that come in on oxigen and my goal in life is to help them why i wanted to be in the medical field and i feel like im not getting any help like we will get the test when we get them...

im wondering if getting a pulse ox is a good idea like you have so when i do feel bad i can just start recording them and start taking this into my own hands....so i can go to them and say yea when you did it is okay but when im feeling it at my worst look at my numbers..
