I had bronchitis back a couple weeks ago. Now I'm just congested. Feels like there's a weight on my chest when I draw in a breath.
Four days now I've been in my bedroom with a hot steam vaporizer with Vicks(r) Vapo Steam(r) Liquid Medication for Hot Steam Vaporizers.
I don't know how much benefit Missy has gotten, but she insist on staying with me. Banshee comes in to visit once in awhile, then leaves at the first opportunity.
The next Leisure League luncheon is Thursday, and I can't figure how I can take the vaporizer with me. Maybe the Albuterol inhaler will be enough. But I do plan to go.
It was a beautiful sunshiny day today. The wind was cold, but the sun felt good when I went out to get the mail. Too bad I had to stay indoors. Breathing the cold air hurt.
Had a fun 3-way Instant Message conversation today. (Hm, 4-way including me) Boy! was I ever typing fast to keep up with everyone! It felt good, though, to get back in my steamy bedroom, which is where I'm going now.
Bless

- From:404Error (Legacy)On:Tue Jan 01 2008I'm sorry you don't feel well, and worse, feel a touch of cabin fever.
Personally, I have some sort of sinus irritation. Sneezing, blowing, and running. It's annoying, but not too serious. It's nothing like the holiday lung fungus of 2005, thankfully.
Have a happy New Year, my friend. - From:DancingButterfly (Legacy)On:Tue Jan 01 2008Heh heh. Seen the movie, 'Titanic'? I had visions of a cat's paw sliding down a steamed up bedroom window.
I do surely hope you feel much better tomorrow, and that you don't have to trundle the vapourizer along with you.
Blessings - From:Mamallama (Legacy)On:Tue Jan 01 2008Goodness! I hope you feel better very soon!
Wishing you better health in 2008.
Happy New Year!
Hugs, Tiggs - From:Yetzirah (Legacy)On:Tue Jan 01 2008Maybe we need to send you to the jungle for a little while...
Hope things clear up soon.....
Happy secular New Year! - From:Dreamerbooks2003 (Legacy)On:Tue Jan 01 2008The only warning I will leave is that if you go outdoors after all that steam, it can make pneumonia easier to grab you
a doctor told me that, when I had Kody in a steam room (;/) for his bronchial trouble. The albuterol will break up congestion .. i would suggest that..
stay warm
*we got down to 4 deg F last night!!! talk about bone chilling.. very cold. as my neighbors honked horns and threw fire crackers all over the place..
Happy 2008 - From:Waterspriteflying (Legacy)On:Tue Jan 01 2008Happy New Year, dear one!
Hope you feel better very soon, and that Thursday will be fun and comfy.
Love,
Ani - From:Ksmiley (Legacy)On:Tue Jan 01 2008Despite that you are not feeling well, it looks like you are busy.
- From:CovertOps (Legacy)On:Wed Jan 02 2008Oh no!!!! Poor Chaya! Please get well soon. If I could afford it, I would send you an air ticket each year so you could spend the coldest weeks in Sacramento over here in the tropics instead. Imagine -- swimming, walking in the park or on the beach, sipping coconut water from your deck chair with your shades on...
I love Missy and Banshee. They are delightful. Happy New Year, dear Chaya!
Lots of Love,
