Hi Thanks Andrew for your reply. It was beating fast before the diagnosis and in the hospital. So my lung specialist did an echocardiogram and an ultrasound on all my organs while I was in the hospital. He says everything besides my lung seemed fine. Thank goodness it didn't go to my kidneys. So I'm going to ask my rheumatologist about it when I see her on the 26th. I had shortness of breath and chronic bronchitis for about six years leading up to all of this (which most likely was the start of the WG in the lungs) I had a grapefruit sized mass on my left lung in March, so now I'm not taking any more chances and being passive about my health. Were you diagnosed early or did it take them a while to figure out what was wrong with you?
