Good job Grumps! I knew you could do it!

As for the doctor visit.............. GREAT NEWS! well sort of......

No significant lung damage to report, the physicians assistant had me do a peak flow meter test, the first exhalation was at 449 on a scale 800, she looked at me funny and said "do it again" Did it again and blew it up to 500.... She grabbed it and said "apparently there is no need to do that a third time" It seems my peak flow is excellent even for a 30 year smoker!

The official diagnosis is........

Acute bronchialspasms, brought on by airborne contaminants and or allergies, just as I had suspected....

Seems I quit smoking for nothing....lol.....just fooling!

It seems tht I will be here for a good long while yet, god willing accourse!

THANKS FOR EVERYONES THOUGHTS AND CONCERN, IT MEANS THE WORLD TO ME!!
