that was in79 and if anything i have gotten worse. supposedly my heart and lungs are okay and i have a physical in a couple of weeks which i am scared of. last night i was trying to make peace with death and was just obsessed with death. I am such a frightened person. it is getting worse with age.
guess i will try to read a book and escape

Dear Bobby,
Myabe it will help to tell your doctor. You can refuse any tests if the doc mentions them.
My own pdoc refused strongly recommended surgery on his ankle.
Talk about what is goign on . . it might help you to get it out at the doc's office. Then do what I do ---- "forget" to make the appt for the test, complain about how much the test will cost me, . . . . .
I hope you can be ok.
