Feeling a bit better
Sat Jan 24 2004

Thanks to all you lovely people who sent me get well wishes. This is what I love about DD!

I had an absolutely miserable night last night. Took everything in my home pharmacology that would ease pain, help me relax, stop coughing, etc., etc., etc. Had maybe a total of four hours of sleep broken up into segments of varying lengths.

But today, I'm feeling like I might actually get well again. Trouble is, with bronchitis (if past experience holds) I'll be coughing for another six weeks, although I won't be contagious to others. This is an ailment that's trouble me since I was a child, but as I mentioned in a previous entry, this is the first time in five years. My doctor used to expect me every year about this time.

So, again, thanks friends for your good wishes. I'm working on it!

Shalom

PS: If I don't leave comments on your diaries, it's because I have 280 messages in my mail. But I'm reading, and when I get caught up, I'll begin again leaving my words of wisdom (that's a joke, son) on your diaries.

    As to the next six weeks of coughing, talk to your doc about advair. It is ridiculously expensive so maybe he will have a sample of it. It is an anti-inflammatory and did wonders for me after that bout of pneumonia in september.

    Glad you are feeling better (((((hugs))))

    P.S. Serevent works really well, too. But ditto on trying to get a sample as it is expensive too
