My coffee table is littered with Vick's Vaporub, Kleenex, Alka-Seltzer Cough and Cold, nose drops, an inhaler, Vitamin C gummies, and a heating pad. Yes, lake life inside has taken on the dreariness of the outside this past week.
I went to the doctor for the second time in a week (first was troubling lung sounds before the cold/cough hit), and today they diagnosed me with early pneumonia (dang this chemo which suppresses my immune system). So I will start on antibiotics today and hope to drive it out.
All of my outside projects have gone by the wayside, but the weather has been cloudy and rainy anyway, so I haven't missed much. Without a computer/internet and any other human around, I have comforted my whining self with 3 novels. The weather has since turned beautiful and now that I will be on the mend, as well as my better half arriving late tonight, the summer can really begin. Life without my hubbie around is a half-life
Please pray that one dose of antibiotics will wipe out this bug. She said they often double-dose chemo patients, but I don't want that many side effects (antibiotics make me sicker than chemo ever did!).
