You are about to read a personal situation that is currently happening to me.

It all started late one night, i had just got home from a family reunion.  I remember all I was wearing was a regular shirt, no sweater to protect ne from the cold.  I got home made a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and was ready to go to sleep.  As I was about to close my eyes to go to sleep I jumped back up I suddently got the feeling that I had stopped breathing. 

So I quickly got up and I made myself a tea, and drinked that to calm myself down.  It was a feeling of desperation not knowing what was going on or what was going to happen to me.  I then turned on the television and began watching t.v. to try to get my mind away from my situation.  The next day I was fine, I just remember thinking I had caught a cold.  But the symptoms were weird, my nose was congested but had nothing.

As the days passed I just began to forget it, besides my birthday was coming up that sort of made me get distracted and made me feel a bit better.  Then we began to plan out trip to Las vegas, to celebrate my birthday.  We left to Vegas for my birthday and everything was ok, not normal but ok.  I remember walking on the streets of Vegas with a feeling of being numb.  Or as if I was walking on clouds, the sensation of my hands was not there.  But I didn't see it as something bad, I just thought it would go away by itself. 

When I returned back to Los Angeles, as I came into my house I felt weird.  I felt really light and as if my body was missing or not there.  I stood up in fron of my bathroom's mirror and I felt as if I weighed as a thin sheet of white paper.  I have recently gone to the doctor and have done both blood and urine tests but they say everything is perfectly fine.  In fact they told me I have depression.  Although I don't thinkso because I don't consider myslef as a sad person.  But who knows, right now I have tried my best to eat as healthy as possible and drink plenty of fluids and vitamins.  I have also stayed away from the computer. 

I will continue to express my feelings to all of you.

If you have spare time please incluide Luis in your prayers! God works in mysterious ways!

And I will thank you!

Well I guess now I have to pay for the mistakes of doctors.  Since January I have checked in with at least 6 doctors.  But I think now one of them might have figured out one of my problems.  This past Thursday I went with a doctor and he told me I had a case of "bronchitis" since then I had a mild temperature never reaching higher than 100* F and I'm stuck with a cough that really sucks.  I mean it really sucks, no matter what I do to soothe it, it's still there.  I guess if back in January when I first visited the doctors, if they would have diagnosed me correctly; right now I probably wouldn't be like this.  First they told me I had anxiety, which now i've learned it means when they have nothing better to say.  I really mean it, a doctor told me they tell us that when they have no other answer.  Anyways, first supposobly I had anxiety, then supposobly it turned into depression, and now it's "bronchitis"!  I guess I must say thanks for trusting that they knew what I had.

Now, I just want to get better to live my live as I was living before all of this.

THANK YOU!
