Thanks The Professional. Its glad to know I am not alone. I know how it must feel to get a Masters and go on even further to realize there are no jobs in education or at least here in America. I know one Ph.D holder who works in telemarketing. I worked with him! Terry gave me very good insight as well as Errol, Brett, yourself and many other posters. I am going to put these tools to use and practice daily positive affirmations and achieve some goals. I can do this and so can you.

Errol,

Are you still unable to drive semis? Where did you sit so that you get so many fumes? From the exhaust or from the fuel itself? How about stop feeling sorry for yourself. Is the Sarcoidosis a lifetime malady or does it go away?

I still have my medical card and its good for one more year. I can still drive a semi. My physician is against it. Sarcoidosis is like pulmonary fibrosis. Lungs deteriorate over time--and pollutants just excels the deterioration. Multiple nodules, scarring, infilterations. They thought I had lung cancer. I am a healthy male, except for lungs. Never smoked. It might be genetic since my grandfather had terrible lungs as a farmer but it was asthma. Its so much being inside the truck. Its the truck stops where it turns bad. I cough my head off and just cant sleep.
