Cpnhelp.org - Chlamydia Pneumoniae Treatment

I couldn't believe what I watched on TV last night. It was a show called Mystery Diagnosis and this episode was about an 11 year old girl who could not exert herself even slightly. If she walked up even a few steps she would experience chest pain/burning, headache, dizziness, shortness of breath, and even fainting. She would have to stop to rest halfway up the single flight of stairs in her house. Too me it was obvious something was very, very wrong, possibly a heart problem. But she went to doctor after doctor and they would tell her things like she's just lazy, she needs to exercise more, she too fat (only 15-20lbs overweight!), or had asthmai (yet they wouldn't give her an inhaler). I'm sorry but even the chubbiest most out of shape kid will not get chest pain and fainting from going up one flight of stairs. And some of these doctors who told her nothing was wrong with her were even cardiologists! It took this poor girl 10 years go finally get diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension and the doctor who diagnosed her was shocked she was even alive after going so long without treatment. I was amazed it took her so long to get diagnosis with such severe symptoms. If so many doctors can blow off such obvious symptoms is it any wonder it's so hard for us to get our Cpni diagnosis with all its vague and varied symptoms?
