Over the course of the last 7-8 months, she has developed many new health problems, ranging from heart trouble to blackout spells. The doctors are stumped at what's wrong with her and have diagnosed everything from blocked arteries to possible brain tumor.
Does anyone out there have any information that might help us? I have searched the web and found nothing. If you think you can provide some useful information, please e-mail me as soon as possibe at sandymanes@infionline.net.
Thank you.
