Yes my 80's (early 90's:-))friends - it is that song....could have titled it "Back From Rock Bottom," "It Was Bound to Happen," etc. WOWsers! About a month ago I was dealing with bronchitis (before that was sick tooooo) then last week, after my kids and hubby had a yucky 'bug' for 12-24 hrs, I got it. Tuesday was the day it all began - no big deal, I handle this, it will all be over early Wednesday. It wasn't. And then it still wasn't.
I did not see daylight from Tuesday eve until Thursday 3:45pm when my hubby forced me to go to the doctor. As you can imagine, I hadn't showered let alone comb my hair! I mustered all my strength to stand in the shower, throw my hair up, get dressed and go for a ride. WOW it was bright - now I know why they gave the miners in Chile such nice sunglasses! Anyway, after one and a half hours at the doctor - I was told my immune system was shot - DUH - Ya think?? After four years of crappy sleep and now this........it was bound to happen.
I told him that from the start - I didn't think it was anything else but I understand they have to rule out other things. So - got a lovely shot in the rear (steriods:-)) and some mega anti-biotics to clear up any remaining bronchial infections. It is now five days since all the drug interactions and I feel pretty well close to normal. YAY!! I HAVE to mention Big Daddy here - he was amazing and I (and the children) were so blessed that he could take time off to be here - because I was soooooo out of it!! He sacrificed a lot at work - but no one else could have filled his HUGE shoes - did I say HUGE??:-)
NOW - to just figure out a way to get GREAT sleep and keep on top of my health - would be great!!
More later.....in the NEXT blog.....
