My roomate has taken a "break" from work.
He states that each time he gets the
flu/cold he also gets pleuritis. (a doc
told him this years ago) this time when he
went to the doc he said that she said she
heard an extra heartbeat every third beat
of his heart. Supposedly she stated that
it wasn't a murmur and it wasn't due to
the heart itself. It was due to what was
going on in his body with the pleuritis.
The reason I say he is full of crap is
because everytime he goes to the doctor he
has a strange/rare/unheard of disease
raging in his body starting with a
'stroke' at age 18. He knows I am a
student nurse and he refused to give me
the name of this heart medication the doc
supposedly put him on. He gets himself
off work and lays on the couch to play
video games. Hypochondriac? Possibly.
Someone help answer my unanswered
questions. Or am I being to harsh?
